Haha only a buzz away

 

[Tiger Woods]

Game set match for AD

Given its happened now and if the recovery goes well, He’d be back in time for the start of next season. Unless it takes longer to heal, good chance he’s back by Round 1-2.

I doubt he will be back for start of next year. It’s his 3rd in 5/6yrs on same knee. He is in for some serious extensive time off and potentially a review of his movements & running style. Could be 18mth layoff.

 

[cktiger]

Early release by the Tigers so he can go play cat at Union, Super League or Sydney Shield, should never step foot on a first grade pitch ever again 🙏

Yeah … rubbish .🤣

 

[Winston Churchill]

Medical release ASAP please 🙏

 

[Kaito]

Medical release ASAP please 🙏

Medical release is effectively retirement.
Knowing Doueihi there is no way no way
In the world he would be betting
against himself to come back from this.
Worst possible news for him, he'll be back

I feel for AD and trust he is able to recover. Too early to understand the extent of the injury but if it is an ACL tear the club has to exercise its duty of care and retire him. AD's desire to return shouldn't come into consideration.

His performance today was improved; however, still well below first grade standard. While several of his kicks were better than usual, and the bounce of the ball cost hm a 40-20, most of his kicks lacked control, direction and placement. How anyone can overlook his kicks raining down on the 30m line or skewing towards the touch line is beyond me. It is clear that the outside backs have no idea either as they don't know if they need to chase hard or stand back and wait.

As for a replacement? I have been wanting to see how Laurie goes in the 5/8 role but we haven't had an opportunity so far. His pre-season performance may well be the reason that Sheens hasn't used him. Wakeham didn't cut it and the word on Smith isn't positive either so he may be the last man standing.

Some tough calls need to be made soon.

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

Wasn’t Talau a 6 coming through the ranks?

Is slow, poor in defence, average passing game and likes to go himself when there are better options.

Could be a like for like replacement

Matamua was also a five-eight as a junior, but God help us if he's named as Doueihi's replacement

 

[Carefactor]

Poor lad....

Looked bad.
Saw a few like that over the years with the likes of Teddy and Moltz.

He was having a decent game too and defending well (for the first time this year)

Third ACL? Might be a dark road ahead for him.... I wish him the best. Truly believe he has a good team/support system around him.

Moltzen had a broken patella, same as Teddy and Papz.

 

[OzLuke]

Poor lad looked devastated...
Fingers crossed a good recovery.

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

Maybe tigers should send doueihi to that American bloke for his knee.

Look it helped for Turbo, can't see why not for Adam

 

[finnzo]

He will make a full recovery and play again
He’s only 24

He’s not gonna give up on his hopes and dreams
