ACL agony to finals glory: Jesse Colquhoun opens up on tough injury battles

Jesse Colquhoun returns from injury to lead Cronulla Sharks in NRL Grand Final challenge.

Zero Tackle

Twelve months ago, Jesse Colquhoun was sitting on the sidelines after rupturing his ACL. Now, the Cronulla Sharks forward is 80 minutes away from helping guide his side to an NRL Grand Final.

After defeating the Sydney Roosters and Canberra Raiders in back-to-back weeks, the Sharks will now face their most difficult challenge yet, taking on a red-hot and healthy Melbourne Storm in Victoria.

In his fourth season with the club, Jesse Colquhoun has been able to stand up in the absence of captain Cameron McInnes, but his journey to first grade hasn't been the easiest.

Only playing 27 matches - 17 of them being in 2025 - the lock suffered consecutive foot injuries before rupturing his ACL in his return to the field during last year's campaign.
