OFFICIAL Simon Dwyer [Discussion]

Such a shocking injury and a career that won't be fulfilled. It should be a lesson and a wake-up call for someone like Duggan. Don't take it for granted because it can be taken from you in an instant.

Unfortunatley the Wests Tigers have lost some really great and talented players. To simon, get better soon big fella and to others, R.I.P. All are missed.
 
May be the reason Tedesco has been called up. Sironen I know was on their radar, but Tedesco to replace Hayne wow huge call.
 
Nice to see Dwyer around and not lost to the NRL.

I tell you Dwyer is one player the Tigers could really have used this year in a fairly inexperienced pack.

I'll never forget some of his hits ( especially the Wareera Hargraves one ).

Does Simon have much feeling in that arm and shoulder these days.

I wish him all the best.
 
Great opportunity for City stars: Dwyer

Wests Tigers GPS Technician and former player Simon Dwyer has this year continued in his role as Assistant Coach of the City Origin team.
Dwyer told Wests Tigers TV the Club's three representatives will take the experience of camp back to Wests Tigers training.
"The week has been good," said Dwyer. "All the boys are gelling together really well.
"They're going good.
"It will be a really good opportunity for them to learn off the senior players in the team and taste a bit of rep football."
Dwyer is still heavily involved in rugby league, despite sustaining a long-term injury. City coach Brad Fittler brought Dwyer onto his staff last season.
"It gives me something to do since I'm not playing NRL at the moment," said Dwyer.
"I was pretty surprised when Freddy gave me the call and invited me down. I was happy with that."

Wests Tigers will feature an interview with Dwyer in the coming weeks.
 
OHHH assistant coach!! I misread that the other day as assistant referee; was so confused given the arm issue. This makes so much more sense. :laughing: :laughing:

doesnt have any feeling in his hand i believe, very long term and serious injury.

I liked it how he said he's not playing NRL at the moment….. With that determination he will surely one day be coaching the tigers to a premiership.

I love this guy…
He seems really genuine in every interview / everything I've seen from him.
Even the JWH hit - this guy is all class.

Not sure what his future holds but I wish him the best, he deserves it.
Was easily one of the best up and coming young second rowers before his injury.
Hopeful he can come back someday.

I have supported the Tigers for pver 30 years and always thought the 89 GF was the saddest day I can recall, but this is much, much sadder.

Great kid and just a damm shame. He and woods would have been our siro and blocker of this generation together. Simon was the beat forward prospect we have had since Siro senior came through. Absolutely tragic on every level.
 
Whenever I think of poor Barb, it really puts things into perspective re: RL & WTs

In the photo on the Foxsports site he is sickeningly skinny. It makes me really sad.

Even skinnier in person. Very sad.
