Injuries to key players Brandon Smith and Sam Walker pose a major challenge for Sydney Roosters.
Brandon Smith and Sam Walker, two key players for the Sydney Roosters, have been dealt a devastating blow less than a fortnight before the kick-off of the 2024 NRL Finals.
The Roosters, known for their resilience and fighting spirit, are now faced with a major challenge due to these injuries.
During a clash with the Canberra Raiders on Sunday, Brandon Smith was forced off the field within 12 minutes of play, raising concerns about a potential serious knee injury.
These fears were sadly confirmed by the club on Monday, revealing that Smith has suffered a left ACL rupture without any contact from an opponent.
