I have never know an injured Tiger who comes back from injury either on time or early!!

Blake Ayshford is the only one.

Really? I recall a player called Pat Richards playing in an important match in 2005\. What was that game and who won? Did Richards score a try?

I understand where alexaki is coming from though… injuries at the Tiger's seem to take longer than any other club.

Probably because other clubs say a 6 week injury is a 6 week injury … when a Tiger gets a 6 week injury they say he'll be back in 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, 8 weeks ... call a spoon a spoon. Would rather they say someone will be out for x weeks from the beginning than it changing each week

Given the nature of the injuries to Tuiaki and Tupou there is no set timeframe on their return. As it is, I don't think Tuiaki will be back this year.

Tell that to the Warriors. Steve Price has been out for ages with a "bruised heel". Besides there have been many occasions where players have been ruled out for weeks and come back early. I seem to remember it happening with Bryce Gibbs.

Are you suggesting the Tigers deliberately lie about how long an injured player will be out for?
 
Of course he is. Dont forget the human body is very simple organism so of course the club must be lying. Their reason for lying is that Tim Sheens gets an extra pair of steak knives for each week that a player is out longer than predicted. This was a longstanding bet that he had with Royce in 2006.

Got some bloke on Facebook telling me Tuiaki ont be back ever. Says he heard it on the radio this morning he will announce his retirement in 2 weeks?

Where are all the people in the know? Is there any truth to this rumour?

they dont know yet… so u cant say that... no one has said he is retiring or even said he should and i can tell u he wont want to retire on his own accord
we should hear more this week as to how he is progressing
 
Balmainkings unless you are certain, this is not something that you should throw around. In other words, unless your info comes directly from Tui or his doctor my recommendation is to keep your thoughts to yourself.

I, for one,wish him all the best and hope he is able to make it back.
