OFFICIAL Elijah Taylor [Discussion]

[TopTiger]

Do those head clashes count as head knocks? Just wondering if he may be rested this week out of precaution/responsibility?

Timing isnt good?!

I was really angry that his wound from the previous week was opened up so easily. What…did he have a band aid covering it? Poor treatment from medical staff imo. Sensational player doing more than his fair share.

Didn't one of the sideline commentators state during the game that his wound on Sunday was a new one and not the same wounds re-opened which would require stitches at half time.

 

[the_third]

yeah different injury - it was his ear last week

Only applies to concussion protocols ..not a head knock…both occasions Taylor never left the field..

As the guy is made of Granite >>>>>>>

 

[ALX22]

Solid.

Didn't hear that. What's the chances of two severe head cuts in consecutive weeks? Maybe as Tim I guess.

Elijah's daughter was admitted to hospital late last week and placed in intensive care … the reason he withdrew from the game...

Puts things into perspective...

Thoughts and Prayers are with you and your family...

 

[king_sirro]

Fingers crossed she will be ok.

 

[innsaneink]

Ooohhh terrible news, get well soon little one

 

[851]

They said a family emergency, hope she is doing fine now.

 

[Joel Helmes]

Hope all is ok.

 

[hammertime]

That's tough. No wonder he was out. Hope she's ok.

 

[ryanda01]

If she's anything like her old man; she'll be tough as nails! Some things much more important that bickering about a coach change; very grounding.

 

[Magpie_Magic]

Wishing all is well .
Hoping for some good updates.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

He's been named this week so I assume all is well now.

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

Poor bastard, must be the worst feeling in the world.

Hope his little one is on the mend and he's in the right space to play. Footy is secondary to stuff like that.

 

[greatodensraven]

Hope the little Tiger is ok!

 

[TrueTiger]

all the best ET,you can take or leave friends,footy clubs etc,but family are first and foremost..may the good Lord hold her in the palm of his hand and protect her and the family in this time of need…

 

[mike]

Not only has he been awesome on field but just saw him interviewed on Channel 9\. Speaks well and says it how it is. Very impressed. He would make a pretty good captain as well I think.

 

[The_Queen]

Cleary had him in line to be captain at Penrith before he was punted

 

[Geo]

Yeah…they showed an interview Elijah did at the airport in regards to Moses and he was very good in his response...

When he left the Panthers he was all class never bitter..

Cleary gave him the Captaincy at the Panthers,,,Depending on what Woods decides to do wouldn't surprise me if he gives it to Taylor next Year as Co or even this year if Woods commits elsewhere...
