In a devastating blow to the Dragons, Corey Allan has been sidelined for the entirety of the 2024 season after suffering a debilitating ACL injury.
The promising recruit's misfortune serves as a harsh reminder of the unforgiving nature of the sport.
Despite hopes of bolstering their squad, the Dragons' plans have been derailed once again with the news that the expected signing of Ronald Volkman will not materialize.
Volkman's medical exam revealed a pressing need for major shoulder surgery, plunging the player into a lengthy and uncertain recovery period.
The club's initial optimism quickly gave way to the reality of Volkman's previous shoulder reconstruction and the subsequent complications that have arisen.
The Dragons now face the challenge of finding suitable replacements and maintaining team cohesion in the face of these setbacks.
With the season rapidly approaching, the Dragons can ill-afford any more setbacks as they strive to compete at the highest level.
The club will need to rely on their resilience and depth to overcome these obstacles and forge ahead on the Rugby League battlefield.
