Canberra Raiders stand down Corey Harawira-Naera due to scary medical incident, clearance for training.
The Canberra Raiders have stood Corey Harawira-Naera down from all playing and training as he continues his recovery from a scary medical incident in mid-2023.
The second-rower hasn't played since the incident which saw him suffer an on-field seizure during a game against the South Sydney Rabbitohs at Homebush.
While Harawira-Naera did recently receive clearance to pick up his training intensity, The Canberra Times report it was problematic for the forward to simply receive that clearance.
