I’ve had three knee surgeries and MCL, PCL, ankle and hand injuries, all before I was 24. I did think about giving it away after I did my knee for a third time in 2019, but I couldn’t bring myself to stop playing, so I gave myself no choice but to play on." “I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t hard and that I thought, ‘Maybe I won’t make it to the NRL’. It was pretty tough going through my knee recos, but it taught me that I have a good support base behind me, especially at a club like the Broncos where they have the facilities to help me get back to where I was before I got injured.” “Anyone who says they don’t want to start for their club would be lying. I have spoken to ‘Kevvie’ and every session he is pushing me to challenge for that starting spot alongside Payne and Patty. With the team we have here, I think I can come off the bench and fill in around the middle (front row) or the edge (second row), but personally I like playing in the middle. I did some extra rehab on my shoulder in the off-season just to make sure I was ready for the pre-season. I have done some contact leading into this game so I’m good to go.” “Ezra and Brendan Piakura are the two special guys here. Brendan is still only 19 and Ezra is going to debut soon ... he is a freak of a talent.” McHunt [/QUOTE]
