Small positive steps for James Tedesco

[@MarTiger]

Here we go again, read on Tigers website that Groat has injured his toe at training & is out "indefinitely"

A small set back, it could have been worse. No drama.

Yeah unfortunate, it's apparently a full toe reconstruction and he's out for 4-5 months. Was looking primed a big year.

Well he should only miss 8-10 of the actual season then. If he is good enough he will still play plenty of first grade in 2013.

I'd like Groat to play NSW Cup for a lot of the year. He needs a gradual progression into NRL. He has the potential but needs experience against bigger and better props than those in NYC

Tedesco looks a lot bigger then last year in the training pics, both in height and weight. Really hoping that he has an injury free season, he could be the outside back x factor that we've been missing.

A year later and he is bigger again.
Doesn't look like it's slowed him down at all.
