Awful for him. Brutal reality is that he's a big injury risk for any club to have on their books. He's had long-term injuries with us, got injured at Hull and now Bradford. I genuinely hope he gets through this and somehow manages to have a long run without injury.

I think we're past the point of calling it bad luck now. As harsh as it sounds, some players' bodies just aren't up to the rigors of intense sports. Gary Wheeler was another one, decent player but his body just couldn't cut it.

Being smashed around by blokes 10 years older, and 10 to 20kgs heavier at 17 won't have helped. I've said it a few times, but the days of 16 and 17 year olds playing professional RL should be left in the past.

His injuries had nothing to do with that. Freak foot injury, now hamstring trouble. Just unlucky +++

Feel sorry for the lad
