Tedesco plays like he has disc bulges in his low back causing nerve pressure

[Andrew Walker]

Teddy would need to get dumped by the coach for this to happen, because I don’t think teddy would like to be seen as the captain jumping from a sinking ship.

he would get roasted by everyone for making himself unavailable, just as much as he will for getting picked again.

The only rats jumping or leaving the sinking ship are Sally and Jaxxx who have gone missing recently

This place has improved out of sight since Sally went to the naughty corner...... looks like she's thrown the toys out of the cot and spat the dummy as well....... feel the serenity.

Just saw this on FB. Good short read…



I would love to know what the fascination is in this country and the state of NSW in particular with tall poppy syndrome. It doesn’t matter who it is, what they have done, we love to tear people down. It’s like we enjoy to see others fail. It makes them more human.

Just seven months ago James Tedesco captained Australia, scored two tries and won the Man of the Match award in the World Cup Final. Let that sink in. Seven months ago!

He is a three time winner of the Brad Fittler medal (NSW player of the series), Dally M Winner and current captain of NSW and Australia.

Fast forward seven months from that World Cup victory and the Roosters have had their most inconsistent year in recent history. As Roosters captain Tedesco has shouldered much of the blame. The Roosters halves issues, hooker issues, suspensions and injuries have all contributed to Tedescos form.

Due to Tedesco having a slow start to the year and not getting his usual 80 points a game super coach score, people with very, very short memories are all of a sudden calling for James Tedesco to be dropped for NSW. The captain of Australia, NSW’s captain for the past four years, dropped. Just like that.

Does anyone seriously believe that if Tedesco played for the Panthers he would look any worse then Dylan Edwards!? The Panthers are absolutely flying, it’s easy to look good when surrounded with that talent.

Tedesco is 30, not 35. Billy Slater was still playing for Queensland at 35. Teddy has at least three great seasons ahead of him. For all you doubters just wait and see. Never knock a champion.


Some good points in there.

A lot of it's to do with the lazy two bit media we have in this country. Losing money hand over fist as advertisers flee, they take the route of dishing up low cost daily gossip and made up speculation as their content. Stir up shit as opposed to do proper in depth stories. Be it coaches under pressure, players changing clubs, made up rumours blah blah blah.

Sickening and is only hastening their inevitable demise.

Edwards for Origin 3 and give Teddy the two weeks off.

I got slammed for saying the same thing 2 weeks ago. I want what you're wearing

Nothing worse than a bad back, takes over your life. I feel for you and I know what it’s like.

I’ve had a back back/nerve pain for 4 years straight and tried everything before I went down the fusion surgery path.
Mate be very careful with a spinal fusion surgery…You may have no other choice but just do your research.
Unfortunately I developed so many complications from that ALIF surgery and the loss of movement from the fusion is something you can never get back.

All the best with it and hope it improves!

I had what looked like requiring surgery, 16 years ago. Decided to see Anthony minicellos neurosurgeon Richard parkinson. I thought if he could get mini back on the field he must be good. Doesn't do a surgery unless absolutely essential ..sent me to nrl best physio...didn't get surgery and still haven't had surgery.. I think he is an amazing person! All the best!
