OFFICIAL Adam Doueihi #227

[innsaneink]

Madge targeting round 4.

Nothing more than a guess. Impossible to estimate when you don’t know when the surgery is.

But we have lots of medical experts here

I think we have a team of doctors/health experts that rivals the best in the world.

Since the club sent Adam back to NSW he could be waiting months to get his surgery... why they didn't get it done in Queensland is baffling.


I would have thought going to see the specialist who did his initial operation is the most logical move and he is in Sydney.I see nothing baffling at all

Instead of getting his surgery done quickly in Queensland he will now potentially have to wait months for it which means he'll be missing months more of footy next year

Meanwhile Sivo has already had his surgery despite being injured in the same round as Adam. Some clubs are just smarter than others


Absolute nonsense,if you have had an operation with a good specialist you would go back to him again if the problem reoccurs.AD has done that as all smart people would.

Couldn't have been that good a specialist, it got re-injured. Poor from the club!

Aren't Sivo and Cleary getting their operations done in Qld?

Sivo already did

Doueihi should have had his done up there too. Pretty stupid bringing him back.

Depends, I would probably want the surgeon I had already used to do my operation.

But it means he'll spend months more on the sideline, effectively ending our season before it even began. Getting the surgery done asap should have been the main priority. I'm sure the doctors up there are just as good as down here - it didn't bother Sivo or Cleary.

He is such an important part of the team, they should have been doing everything they can to get it sorted to minimise time on the sidelines imo.

I want the best outcome long term. If he misses a bit more time to achieve that then that is what we need. We won't be seeing him back to his best until 2023 anyway.

I agree, but I don't see how another specialist/surgeon in Queensland would be less capable than down here.

Brisbane Private has the best team of Orthos in Qld .....

I wouldn’t

Crikey as if this season couldn't get any worse!

We’re talking next season

That is what makes this worse. Our best player is potentially out all pre-season and maybe some games into next season.

Daine Laurie is our best player and then Stefano and Alex (both of them) Cini and Tuilagi and Liddle and Jake Simpkins are all a solid base and Jock Madden is a star in waiting, bring in Hoffman and kiah cooper and William kei and Pauga and Amone and the club isatarting to look good,,,, all we need is a coach that can bring out their natural talent and get them to start playing footy… bring on Shane Flanagan

Yeah, nah. Cini a solid base, don’t think so. Didn’t bother reading the rest after that.

Ha ha ? you and I can just agree to disagree on Flanagan, plenty of other things to agree on but we will never agree on Shane it seems. ?

I'm not @cochise lol

I don't have a stance against Flanagan.
His voice doesn't strike me as one that would inspire players though.

Flanagan would almost be as bad as moving us to QLD.

Haha, I thought so.

I'm not a fan of Flanno either

I’d be definitely picking up Ash Taylor now. Hastings is an unknown quantity and if he doesn’t work out we’re stuffed.

I'm starting to think having a dominant alpha male type player like Hastings could help tilt the scales. IMO he only needs to show he's team driven or goal oriented to be deemed a succesful recruit for the team.
It's nothing against Ash but coming to a club like ours just might not be the best option for him (to get back to his best footy).

That's terrible news for Adam. All the best in recovery.

You might be right, he’s definitely a competitor, I just don’t know how he’ll adjust to NRL and I think Taylor might be sensible as a contingency. Putting all our eggs in Hastings/Brook is pretty risky IMO. AD is a huge loss

It's unfortunate for him as he's really stood out this year.

Agree we need to adequately fill Mbye's and Walters' spots.
Don't know what to think - in terms of what's best for the direction of the team anymore, but when our own fanbase are identifying them and perceiving their value in the competition at its lowest position, enough is enough.
The one thing that frustrates me is that until every single member of the organisation (players, coaches, management) are more focused or aligned in achieving our vision/goals, we pretty much stay stagnant.

Is there a list of off contract players on the forum?
I wouldn't have minded a Connor Watson or Chanel Harris Tevita type tbh but seeing as Watson went back to the Roosters and I don't know who else is actually available, maybe Taylor is the only realistic option at this point.

I saw a little old lady run fast to stop her shopping trolley from rolling away at woolies the other day, I think we could sign her up to adequately cover for Mbye next year! ??

Do you think she would be willing to sign with us for 800K or do you think the Dogs will get her?

The dogs will pay 1.2m for her.

dunno about Cini, Cooper, Kei and Pauga. all have their reasons for why they won't cut it, mainly around defence and actually providing impact. would much rather Jordan Hill, Israel Ogden and AJ Kepaoa in our backline going forward.

His specialist who did his 1st is in Sydney..Dr Parker

Don't see why they need the exact same doctor, if he can't get it done for another month or more it's awful for the club. Pretty negligent if they can't get it sorted soon, fingers crossed

Must be sending him back for warranty.

 

[hank37w]

My dog snapped his ACL.

The vet operated and he was back to normal in around 4 weeks.

Can we get Adam operated on by a vet instead.

CCL. Dogs don’t have ACL’s

Are you a vet ?

No but my dog did her ‘ACL’ and I had a chat to the vet about it and he explained the differences.
It’s a cranial cruciate ligament. From memory it is the PCL and ACL combined.
My dog came back 4 weeks as well, though needs a steroid booster when required going forwards.

Can your dog play 5/8?
