The Sydney Roosters have provided an injury update following their impressive victory against the Brisbane Broncos on Saturday.
Prominently featured in the report is Mark Nawaqanitawase, who exited the game in the 26th minute due to a syndesmosis injury. He has successfully undergone ankle surgery and will be under the watchful eye of club doctors to establish a timeline for his return.
Lindsay Collins, a vital player for the team, failed his HIA in the 14th minute, placing him under the NRL's head injury protocols.
Meanwhile, Angus Crichton, who is preparing to transition to rugby, experienced a minor MCL sprain. Club doctors and the rehabilitation team are collaborating closely with him to assess his recovery and potential return.
Additionally, Blake Steep, a promising forward, has been diagnosed with an ACL injury while playing for the Roosters in the NSW Cup, and it remains uncertain whether this will end his season.
Tommy Talau, an outside back, is continuing his recovery from a calf issue, while Lachlan Dooner underwent shoulder stabilization surgery this past Monday.
On a positive note, centre Billy Smith has resumed team training after recovering from a knee injury he sustained earlier in the year against Manly.
The Roosters are set to host the Gold Coast Titans on Friday night on the Central Coast.
