In a devastating blow for the Dolphins, fullback Trai Fuller has suffered a suspected ACL injury during the QLD Cup grand final qualifier against the Northern Pride in Cairns.
The injury, which occurred in the second half of the match, could have major implications for the team's plans for 2025.
Fuller, who has been a standout player in first grade this season, was forced off the field by medical staff after the non-contact injury.
The Dolphins' medical team has indicated that the injury is likely to be an ACL tear, pending further scans.
If the injury is confirmed as a full ACL rupture, Fuller could be facing a lengthy spell on the sidelines, potentially missing most of the 2024 NRL season.
The loss of such a key player would be a huge blow for the Dolphins as they look ahead to the upcoming seasons.
With the hands-on test suggesting a serious injury, Fuller's future on the field hangs in the balance.
The team will be hoping for the best but preparing for the worst as they navigate this setback in their quest for success.
