2025 INJURIES & SUSPENSIONS

Joey Manu
We should have a crack at him for rest of 2025, and he can go to Roosters next year

Not going to happen Stake.

But yes that’s the type of player we need at Fullback.

A true difference maker.

A true game breaker.

JM signed on with another rugby team in Europe.

As if he was ever going to come back to the shit show that is the Roosters atm.

I would be making a play for unsigned player not a fullback by trade but I believe he is better then Kennedy and is available mid season we would prob need $400k

Only problem is we have about 50 cents left on the salary cap.

Club just confirmed ACL for Ison. That absolutely sucks big time.

Katoa out mid season
Ison season

We are losing our backs long term

If Kennedy gets injured we have some issues.
Atkinson
Mulitalo
Hiroti
Hynes

They would have to be the options

He's not named anywhere, uncle.
The club has been very quiet on what's happening with him.

As Frenzy and a couple of others have mentioned elsewhere, I think they are taking a very cautious approach with him, given his recent injury history.

As much as I would like to see it happen, I wouldn't be holding my breath on seeing him in firsts any time soon.

A mate of mine (playing Union for Bond University on the Gold Coast) did his ACL in late 2022. He then came back in early 2024 and promptly did the other ACL. He is only 25, but just cannot mentally and emotionally face the possibility of yet another comeback, even though he has been declared physically fit to play.

It is extremely hard to keep persevering under these types of circumstances.

Dykes could be Jackson Ferris all over again, injury after injury
