Feelin for my bra JJB atm,but mark my word this man will be back,his the most mentally toughest person I've met ever

OK Not the most literate of blokes but he knows JJB better than we do and I believe him.

Confirmed ruptured quad tendon, operation on Wednesday then out for "six to nine months".

Not as bad as it could have been by any stretch of the imagination, assuming no structural damage to the knee.

Article on the club website says 6-9 months so maybe it is more possible that he can play again...? http://www.therhinos.co.uk/news/27055.php#.VcCq4fmpziM

Good luck Jamie. Look on the bright side apart from your recent injuries...the other parts of your body have had a good rest which should prolong your career!

Re: JJB : Tue Aug 04, 2015 1:38 pm  

I think he will make a decision to wether he will resume playing when he has recovered

Re: JJB : Tue Aug 04, 2015 1:54 pm  

A 6-9 month time span down, may be more likely to be 12 months in reality.

Another tough test ahead for him.

Re: JJB : Tue Aug 04, 2015 2:43 pm  

NO player I'd back who would have the spirit to come back from that sort of injury at his age.

He's one of the players I admire the most. He plays a similar role in the team, and has maximised his impact by making the absolute most of his abilities because of his hard work and attitude.

Re: JJB : Tue Aug 04, 2015 4:47 pm  

I imagine no decision will be made anytime soon. He'll probably wait to see where he is in his recovery around Nov/Dec and if it's on schedule. The lower end of 6 months isn't too bad because that'd be just a few weeks into the season. If it's looking like 9 months or maybe even more then he might reconsider things.

Re: JJB : Tue Aug 04, 2015 4:54 pm  

I wish him all the best in his recovery. It'd be good to have him in and around the squad next year, what with numerous senior players already leaving at the end of the season.

Re: JJB : Tue Aug 04, 2015 6:44 pm  

Going to be very tough, but might be beneficial in some ways. Give some other bits of his body a chance to recover and heal. If he comes through it then he could be stronger and fitter.
