In a recent development in the world of Rugby League, Brisbane Broncos coach Kevin Walters has provided an injury update on player Deine Mariner, assuring fans that the knee injury he sustained is not as serious as initially feared.
Mariner was forced off the field during the Broncos' recent match against the Canterbury Bulldogs, but Walters has dismissed concerns, labeling it as a mere "knock to the knee." In classic coach speak, Walters mentioned in a post-match press conference that while Mariner did experience some difficulty running, the injury is not expected to sideline him for an extended period.
This news comes as a relief for the Broncos, as Mariner has been a consistent presence on the field this season, making 17 appearances and even switching positions from wing to centre in the last few games.
With this injury scare behind them, the Broncos can now focus on regaining momentum and pushing forward in the competition.
