Terrible news for Ramsey, who has always been a solid player.

Must be really bad if it required surgery, and he's not playing this entire season.

I'd say Sloan will go to fullback now.

If the Bulldogs are willing to release him that is.

Huge blow for the Dragons, he was playing some good footy for them and seemed like a good character to have in the team.

That really sucks for the kid, a reminder to all that things can go pear shaped at a moments notice. Hopefully he is taking solace that the treatments are working. It does kinda suck that there can't be any kind of cap relief. We kinda experienced a bit of this with Tui Katoa, but it didn't affect us nearly as much, firstly, he wasn't a regular starter, secondly he was on minimum, thirdly it was mostly during the off season. If we had a regular starter, say Kiraz, go down like this, we'd certainly appreciate some cap relief.

Maybe they need to tweak that rule, for cases where a serious illness that wasn't principally caused by training for or playing the game, and which has a reasonably firm expected recovery time, or as in this case, lengthy treatment process, with sign off from the relevant medical experts, the team gets temporary cap relief.

Whilst i might hate the dragons with a passion, you don't wish poor health on anyone, hopefully he can get himself right, he is a talent
