Unlucky former Basic B!tches utility Jazz TEVAGA has suffered a fresh blow after picking up a soft tissue injury on Wednesday.
Tevaga is yet to play a game this year, having had off-season ankle surgery and then hurting his knee last month, leading to Dragons 1015 coach Rose to quietly release him from his contract.
B!tches coach Talia also provided updates on Lachlan BURR saying “Lachie [Burr] didn’t pass progression in his HIA assessment last night so he got ruled out,” she said.
Noah’s Arks big man Agnatius PAASI, who copped a recent head knock was struggling after the game this weekend. Paasi was suspended for this round’s clash with the Avengers anyway.”Agnatius started the protocol back from a head knock on Saturday, I’m pretty confident he should be ok heading into the Dingoes match [in round five].”
Avengers five-eighth Connor WATSON is set to miss 6-8 weeks with a syndesmosis injury which will likely require surgery. Watson was injured early in last weekend 793-701 win over Dazzlers Dingoes.
Dragons 1015 are hopeful star lock Jason TAUMALOLO will miss only Round 4’s clash with 2Great4U due to bone bruising to his knee. Taumalolo suffered the injury in his team’s 642-832 defeat by the B!tches last weekend.
