Quote: TheDreadnought "Agree Bren.
I've seen the headline showing season ending injury but I don't know if this will be a career/SL ending injury? If he misses the full season he'll be almost 32 come the 2021 season and as we've seen so many times before it can take a while for players to return to form
If he fails to bounce straight back, I can really see him dropping leagues/standard or maybe even calling it a day.'"
Hate to see any RL player struck down with a serious injury tbh no matter the Club, especially before a game has been played.
At one-time a serious Achilles injuries were career finishers but as long as everything goes to plan such as surgery - if needed, then rehab, he should come back OK but obviously, it's a worrying place for a pro-RL player who kicks to get an injury. As you say he's not in his 20's anymore and had a serious injury last season & they generally get harder to keep coming back from as you get older imo.
