In a post accompanied by a thumbs-up emoji, Young assured fans that he was "all good" and thanked everyone for their concern.

The incident was a scary moment for the young winger, but it's a testament to the toughness of Rugby League players that he was able to walk away relatively unscathed.

As for Toff Sipley, the suspension is a blow for Manly as they prepare to face South Sydney in the season opener.

His absence in the Vegas showdown could have a significant impact on the team's performance.

Crusher tackles have been a major talking point in recent times, with the NRL cracking down on dangerous tackles to protect player welfare.

Unfortunately, Sipley's tackle crossed the line and now he must face the consequences.

Rugby League has a long history of physicality and tough encounters, but player safety must always be a priority.

The use of neck braces and precautions like leaving the field in an ambulance may seem excessive to some, but in the end, they are necessary to ensure the well-being of the athletes.

Young's update on Instagram is a testament to the power of social media in connecting players and fans.

It's a platform for athletes to share their journey and provide reassurance to their supporters.

So, while the incident was alarming, Young's resilience shines through as he declares himself "all good" and focuses on his recovery.

As the NRL season approaches, fans can only hope for a string of electrifying matches, without any more dangerous tackles or injury scares.
