Glad to hear your son is ok. But it seems the complete opposite to the situation Ramsey is in.
Ramsey is losing weight because of all the effort he is putting into playing well and keeping fit.

An off-season of just letting his body and weight right will see him ready for season 2026.

had Ulcerative Colitis. Complete bowel removement. Small intestine was formed into a "J" pouch and connected to the schincter. Colostomy bag on one side whilst recovering from the initial operation, 1year, then the bag was moved to the left side after the connection was completed. Not totally opposite me thinks

Ramsey and his doctors seem to have done a great job and so, I trust that they know what they ae doing. If Ramsey is not up to it, they would surely not have him playing in reserve grade.

It's not the opposite; it is the same but under different circumstances

Cody's heavy training regime dictates a limited calorie intake (Or he won't finish a game or session without a toilet) and his body's inability to produce natural salts make it almost impossible to gain weight.

However, post football, hopefully Cody will be able to put on some weight like your son.

I'm sure you are proud of your sons' efforts.
He sounds like a fighter to me.

All good Hound. It is a horrid desease and anyone that can make it back to professional sport deserves all the praise and admiration that comes their way. I was sceptical that Cody could come back but he has blown my concerns out of the water. Lets hope he can still keep building and helping the club as God knows, we need way more of his dedication and guts.

Any news on Schiller or McCarthy coming to us when the Knights get the Pommy winger from the Chooks?
Will probably have to wait until after the Knight's game v Dolphins on the weekend until there is any news either way.
If we do sign one of these players it will mean both Finau and Allan, and maybe Sloan, will not be with us in 2026.
Lets wait and see.

thats a good pt, those players are in the newcastle extended still.. even though Dom Young is now the starting winger... assume we will want it resolved before team list tuesday, then again tbh I dont rly see any of these guys as game changing in any way.. might be better than our current options marginally, but its a low bar.

I think Schiller has a lot of mistakes in his game. If we do sign him, and I think he has more in the thrust department than Sloan and Allan, he has to minimise his mistakes.

Off topic. If there is a game that looks so rigged, it's the one on tonight in Perth. By crikey it is so obvious. That Klein guy who is officiating is willy nilly giving the Maroons a clear passage to take this SOO game to a one all affair so the decider will be in play.

Well that is how I feel because, NSW are shit tonight hahaha!
