Moses Masoe

[boardlumps62]

He played briefly for the Dragons but a knee injury reduced his appearances for us and then he was gone. Just watched a video where the Dragons interview Mose. Touching to watch and good to see him on the road to recovery. We were robbed he could have been good for us just bad luck. But now he got his luck back hope he fully recovers and gets to walk again think he will.

I wish him all the best in his recovery. He wont play footy again. Sadly.

He never got to play 1 game for us.

On 29 June 2015, Masoe signed a two-year contract with the St. George Illawarra Dragons ahead of the start of the 2016 NRL season.[14]

However, an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) knee injury kept Masoe out for the entire 2016 rugby league season. Subsequently in 2017, he was released without having played in a single game for St. George Illawarra.[15]

Always entertaining, that's for sure...

 

[2010]

Saw a story on the daily mail site showing him walking, ever so slowly using a walker. I am glad he is on the road to recovery,

 

[Gareth67]

Likewise 2010 , the man has suffered some cruel injuries in his time , this of course is the worst . Hope he makes a full recovery and enjoys life with his family.

Absolutely awesome, life perspective right there. Through all the bs about players breaking COVID bubbles etc, a few small steps from Mose just puts those to shame.
Keep going big fella never give up.

Good to see him on his feet again.
Well done Moses.

At last, some good news on the Forum for a change. Good luck Mose with your recovery. Great to see you taking small steps now and the strides will no doubt come back soon. Positivity, courage, family and great help was all you needed.

 

[Dragsters]

Link is broken but sounds like good news for the big fella.

Awesome...

 

[Slippery Morris]

Great to see Mose on the way to recovery. Top bloke.
He was an awesome player but unfortunately we did not get to see much of it in the red V due to injury.

Mose Masoe takes first unassisted steps since spinal injury

Mose Masoe's first unassisted steps since injury.Source: Twitter
Eight months after suffering a serious spinal injury, heartwarming footage has emerged of former NRL player Mose Masoe taking his first unassisted steps.

Masoe represented the Sydney Roosters for three seasons after making his NRL debut in 2010. After a one-year stint with the Penrith Panthers, the forward travelled to England to represent St Helens in the Super League.


Representing the Hull Kingston Rovers, Masoe was rushed to hospital after injuring his spine in an innocuous tackle during a pre-season friendly against Wakefield Trinity in January.

Round 20
The 31-year-old was left paralysed from the chest down, and there were genuine fears he would never walk again.

Following nearly three months in a hospital bed, there were promising signs for the New Zealander when he regained feeling in his legs in April.

Speaking to Hull Live in July, Masoe cheekily conceded: “They say your spinal cord is like a motorway and my cord is like a one-way street at the moment.’’

But Masoe’s recovery reached new heights after a video of his first unassisted steps went viral on social media this week.

This is incredible @MoseMasoe

Masoe told ITV news: “That was pretty terrifying at first, just because it’s a bit different when you’re walking outside. There’s concrete, and if you fall over, you’re going to get quite hurt.


“I always thought maybe after 12 months I’ll probably be walking with one stick, and that’s what I had in my head. But I just attacked it like any other injury I’ve ever had.

“You have to put in the time in rehab, and the small steps will get you there.

Masoe welcomed his fourth child this year, and the Samoa representative recently proposed to his long-term girlfriend.

“One of the biggest things I wanted to do was just to hold my son and to nurture him like any other dad, and I’m able to do that now,’ Masoe said. “I’m just happy I can be that dad.”
