The speedster was disconsolate as he was helped off the field in the arms of trainers, his face etched with anguish. Moments earlier, he had electrified the crowd with a dazzling burst of pace, slicing through defenders with ease. But in an instant, his night took a dramatic turn. Clutching his hamstring and collapsing in pain, it was clear something was seriously wrong.
Teammates rushed to his side as silence fell over the stadium. He tried to stand but couldn’t bear weight, a grimace replacing the smile he wore just minutes before. Trainers arrived swiftly, offering support as he hobbled toward the sideline, head bowed.
While the full extent of the injury is yet unknown, early signs suggest the winger could be in doubt for the upcoming State of Origin decider—a massive blow for his team and fans. Known for his try-scoring flair and defensive reliability, his absence would be deeply felt.
Post-match, his coach called it “heartbreaking,” noting the winger had been in career-best form. The team now waits anxiously, hoping for positive scan results in the days ahead.
