The Wests Tigers' injury challenges have intensified as star dummy-half Apisai Koroisau has been ruled out of the upcoming Round 18 match against the Sydney Roosters.
Currently, the team is already missing Jahream Bula (hamstring injury) and Jarome Luai (involved in Origin duties).
Koroisau's head knock has triggered the NRL's 11-day mandatory stand-down policy, leaving Tristan Hope likely to step in as his replacement.
Meanwhile, reports suggest that young prospect Tallyn Da Silva may have played his last game for the club, with potential moves to either the Manly Sea Eagles or Parramatta Eels on the horizon.
In related news, Manly Sea Eagles head coach expressed frustration at reporters concerning the recent tactical shift of Tom Trbojevic from fullback to centre.
Following their victory, Manly ended a two-match losing skid and has repositioned themselves in the top eight as they aim for a strong finish leading to the 2025 NRL Finals series.
