WOW!

Eagles for the spoon? (Nah, surely not). They'd go close if Robertson returns to fullback though.

 

[Baron Vo Mandor]

Nice try.

 

[Raider_69]

well that settles the nsw fullback situation. Bad news for manly, they might struggle without him.

Actually just read it in the Dragons forum, from a different poster so maybe true!

Stewart out for up to 12 weeks

April 21, 2009 Manly have been rocked with the news today that fullback Brett Stewart will undergo a knee operation on Friday and will be out of action for eight to 12 weeks.
Stewart injured his knee in the second half of last Saturday's NRL match against South Sydney at ANZ Stadium - his second game in the premiership this season.
Early indications after the game were that the injury wasn't serious but subsequent tests indicated it was similar to his knee injury in 2007 which required surgery.
Manly coach Des Hasler said the injury "was shocking luck for Brett but he is a strong character and will work hard on his rehabilitation and minimise his time on the sideline".
Hasler will decide on Tuesday night Stewart's replacement for Saturday's clash with the North Queensland Cowboys in Townsville.
Winger Michael Robertson had the job in the opening month of the premiership and is likely to fill in again in Stewart's absence.
More to come
