OFFICIAL Simon Dwyer [Discussion]

According to the late mail section in today's Telegraph, on the injured list for the Tigers it has Simon Dwyer listed as being out for the season with a hip injury. He was walking fine at the Foundation Cup but does anyone out there know anything about this?
 
He was raised at the Balmain AGM by sheens but he didn't indicate that the injury was long-term, the opposite in fact
 
It also says…Tuiaki Round 3...

Think I'd rather take the rumours on here than anything that's printed in the Telecrap......

As for Dwyer...I don't believe it's a season ending injury....
 
I choose to believe the telejoke for Tui (rnd 3 sounds good) & rumours on here for Dwyer (short term injury sounds good)

Really hope Dwyer is only short term. Sounds like there are some plans for him this season.
 
INJURY NEWS ON DWYER AND TUIAKI
By Wayne Cousins
Friday, 12 March 2010
Wests Tigers would like to clarify a mistake in today's Daily Telegraph in relation to the injury to promising second-rower Simon Dwyer.

It was reported in the Friday Footy Form section that Dwyer (pictured) would miss the season with a hip injury. This is a mistake. Dwyer does have a hip injury but has started running again. His return date remains indefinite.

In relation to winger Taniela Tuiaki, his return from an ankle injury remains indefinite and he is not expected back in round three as listed in the paper.

Robbie said on sports tonight last week,that TNT was expected back in round 3,so that is where they got that from.

I reckon it's fantastic!

See something weird in the paper and Cuzzo mostly corrects it for us (no concrete return dates though).
 
Atm hes our best up and coming forward with Fifita

i think hes injuried but when hes fit he should replace Flanagan
one - hes bigger
two - hes better
 
I thought one of the reasons Sheens likes Flannagan on the interchange was because he can also play hooker and centre if there are injuries.
 
Does anyone no how much longer hes out?

When he returns i think she should be put in Flanagans spot
not that flanagans doing bad anymore

I just think he deserves the chance and did nothing wrong last year
he can off load , set up tries , and tackle
 
dunno how long dwyer is out for i know from speaking to taniela on friday night he said he can still be up to 12 weeks away TNT that is not dwyer
 
Flanagan well and truly before Dwyer.

Dwyer cannot fill the positions Flanagan is and ideally Mark is our bench utility
 
There was no timeframe given on Dwyer's return. He looked pretty lean and fit along with Akeripa at the Foundation Cup but I imagine the club won't take any chances with a hip injury.
 
Flanagan looks the ideal bench utility/forward. No way would I put Dwyer ahead of Flanagan just because his back. Flanagan has perfomed very strongly and Dwyer has not cemented a spot.

It wasn't very memorable TBH. Dwyer needs a good stretch in the NSW cup before he gets anywhere near to firsts IMO. He has no right to just walk into the FG squad.
