‘Great to see him smiling’: Dragons star returns to training after 18-month illness exile

‘Great to see him smiling’: Dragons star returns to training after 18-month illness exile

Dragons star Cody Ramsey has taken the first steps towards a rugby league return, taking the field with teammates after 18 month sidelined due to a severe illness.

The 24-year-old has been battling ulcerative colitis over the past 18 months which can be the result of a malfunctioning immune system, causing ulcers and inflammation in the bowels.

Ramsey had to endure several lengthy and major operations, with doctors holding the belief he would never play professional rugby league again.

The Dragons have looked after the Molong product, splitting the final year of his contract set to end in 2024 so that he remains on the books until the end of the 2025 season.

He was ruled out for all of 2023 and 2024 after receiving medical advice, but was determined to return to the field and paid regular visits to the club’s gym.

Ramsey has lost a significant amount of weight during his time sidelined, but Flanagan was excited to see him back with a football in hand.

It would take an enormous amount of time before he stacks on reasonable muscle, just the pure fact that he is doing it shows tremendous courage. I wish him everything life has to offer, he deserves it.
