Agreed. I don't recall anyone at the time saying the sad end to Davico's career was anything other than very unlucky for the player and the club. It was a tragedy rather than a farce.

What Silverware did you win this off-season?
We won the Cravendale Festive Challenge, and are contesting the final of the Lazenby Cup. I feel our off-season will have more silverware than yours young sir!

I'd say that out of all our imports over the years David Vaeliki was our most risky signing due to injury. Much riskier (at the point of signing) than either Davico or Finch IMO.

Davico wasn't injured when we first signed him. He signed with Wigan in July, he first got the injury playing for Canberra the following month.
HTH.

Hopefully
The headline though was:
'Finch to miss 3months of rugby'
Hope that is including friendlies and not Feb, March & April

| It's a big loss as no doubt Madge had big plans for Finch which will now have to be changed.
BUT
With Amos back, Sam's ability to play #6 and Deacs still here it's not the end of the world. If this would have been a few seasons ago with Trent then we would have seriously suffered. These days we've got the squad and quality to deal with it.
Plus what a boost Finch will be later on. Add Hock back a few months later and we've got the ability to add new blood over the course of the season.

Yeah I spotted him, he must have wanted to keep away from our fans bothering him and I guess he can't really go and sit with the subs.

| Meanwhile, Maguire revealed Brett Finch’s neck operation was a success and said the Australian stand-off is counting down the days until he can play again.
“The operation went well, and he’s been working extremely hard because he’s very keen to play for Wigan,” added Maguire.
“Brett’s a character and the boys have got a good combination with him now – the boys are looking forward to playing alongside him.”
