Moses Mbye suffered a ruptured PCL during training last week per [ ~~@~~ **MichaelChammas** ](https://twitter.com/MichaelChammas) Usually with no secondary damage to the knee there is no need for surgery & only requires 4-8weeks rehab. Mbye is already returning to some full training, expected to play Tigers’ trial on March 2nd

## Mbye a quick healer

Wests Tigers fullback Moses Mbye suffered a torn PCL in his knee at training last week, raising some concern at the club just a few weeks out from their first trial.

However Mbye is starting to return to full training duties despite the tear. Many athletes are able to play without the posterior cruciate ligament in their body.

At first Mbye thought he suffered a serious cork, but the knee swelled dramatically overnight. He was sent for scans the next day, which showed a rupture of the PCL.

He is expected to be fit to play in the Tigers’ second trial against the Warriors in New Zealand on March 2.

Benji Marshall, who also suffered a minor hamstring tear, is back in training and will also be given the green light when the Tigers cross the ditch for the trial against the Warriors.

It’s understood the battle between Marshall and Josh Reynolds is one of the main positions still up for grabs. New recruit Paul Momirovski has impressed in the pre-season and is set to win the left centre spot to start the year.

Indeed, and no surprise to see Momo in line to be given first crack at left centre.
 
yep, it gives ya a bit of a shock when you read these king of articles, but it also makes you realise that Madge is doing his job properly 🙂

Not you 2..Momo..zzzzz…MomIrovski..I I I..
 
I hope that you are correct Willow I see Momo as the long term centre.
At least we won’t have panic attacks like we do when Mahe is playing.
Momo is a very good defensive player something we have been lacking in the backs, hopefully this might keep Nofa out wide marking his opposite winger.
