With the weird joy coming off some of them (esp considering he’s on their books this year) it’s no wonder he wanted out of the cesspool.

It's hilarious too, because this is a huge blow to their middle and they're gonna be defending like dogshit...death riding their most consistent and hard working contributor is PEAK dragons fan

Do we know if it was his left or right? He did an MCL to his left a couple years ago. @shaggs, resident medico, what’s the low down on recovery?
Surgery in 2 weeks.
Potential to return early August.

If it’s ACL only then that’s a better option. Issues arise from the associated cartilage tear or posterior corner bone bruising.

Everyone is different. ACL repair is straight forward common surgery these days

Good stuff. A little worried it’s the left knee and same knee as his MCL. Would that be a concern?

Is that the same due diligence you guys used when buying JackBird on the back of consecutive acl’s?
Why do you keep going on and on and on about bird?

I’ve already said I wasn’t in favour of us signing him.. but even then we’ve signed him on a no play no pay contract.

It’s not like we’ve spent a heap of coin on a player who we see as a future leader..

I read surgery today. They wouldn’t wait 2 weeks.

The comparison is a fair one.... Bird is coming off consecutive acl’s It’s ok to admit you’re gutted because your club captain and two time best and fairest deserted the club. Tyson Frizzel couldn’t get out of their sooner either. Come on Musby.....the place is rotten to the core and deep down you know it.

Everyone agrees that bird is a risk, and his contract is structured as such.. so not sure why it’s such a sticking point with you..

Frizz is a loss, but let’s face it, if you’re going to use losing him to a rival club as a barb, it’s not really offensive coming from Cronulla..

Do tell Musby.... how is Birds contract structured..... I hope for his sake he’s not being paid per win.
