    Thankyou to everyone for the kind messages, really helped pick me up. If a dud achilles is the worst of my issues I’ve got it pretty good compared to so many other Aussies out there battling away Op tomorrow and I’ll be doing everything I can to try get back out there in 2022⚡️

    After crying my eyes out all night I’ve just had the most amazing news. Misdiagnosed ACL tear only meniscus damage so will be back 4-6. In disbelief, just bought about 12 lotto tickets! Thanks to my friends, family and footy community for the support ❤️❤️

    Out of all the deserving journo’s for limited sports jobs in Aus we’ve got this bloke leeching away. @FOXNRL you should be embarrassed

    foxsports.com.au/nrl/nrl-premie… Please just leave our game alone. The tension, grind, pressure & game management almost already gone. Would love the commission for less gimmicking with the rules & more focus on bigger picture strategy
    NRL to trial fresh rule change that would revolutionise kicking tactics

    All finished! Combined with my undergrad it’s been 11 years of study whilst at the Storm. I honestly think I have played better because of it. Football is an amazing job but it’s a rollercoaster of highs and lows.

    Just trying to illustrate my point here..it’s okay for you to profit (albeit indirectly) from the Saudi investment fund but not a golfer?😂

    Some thoughts: - Our counter proposal to the NRL didn’t ask for one more dollar than what the NRL have put on the table - We’ve worked hard for the first CBA for women in our game. Paul if you have daughters/nieces/granddaughters entering our great game they will be protected

    Every time a new broadcast deal is signed, NRL players’ eyes fill with dollar signs. But it’s time for them to pull their heads in and stop letting greed dictate their motivations, writes Paul Kent. dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/nrl/opin…
