So incredibly disappointing. Much love to Walla, I hope he recovers quickly.
Iām a little surprised at the āall good, plenty of time until round oneā type responses on here, though.
The bloke has rocked up seriously overweight (after finishing the season in a similar fashion), so clearly heās not in the best place to tackle a lengthy injury rehab atm, given the professionalism and dedication required. Especially being away from the club, over the Christmas break, etc.
If he couldnāt keep himself fit/lean when he wasnāt injured, Iām not sure why people are assuming heās going to easily be able to flick that switch now.
Hope Iām wrong, of course. I just think we really need to lower our expectations around whether weāll see much of Walla at all next year, which is a really sad possibility unfortunately.
Whatever happens, I wish him all the best. But damn.

Heās someone thatās left no stone unturned through every step of his career to be cherry ripe. Heās jumped through hoops no other player has had too to get where he is so maybe considering what heās done for the club we give a bit back.
And he has done a huge amount.
Players getting judged by the exact same standard is so frustrating.

Yep I agree 100%, and Iām sure we all sympathise for him, however he does seem to be somewhat of a protected species around here. Unlike most, if not all of us, he is afforded elite professional support, so I personally & as a paying member, I expect a lot better from him, just like I do with all players on the list

Brady will ask to speak to wallas manager soon
Has an injury even been confirmed yet?
If he wasnāt preparing for round 1 he wouldnāt be putting in the extra yards now to really work on his fitness and drop some weight.
He has done fantastic and so have the players and club too get him to the point he is currently at.
Injured?

Was wondering that myselfā¦
Iād have thought Browneye and the other ā ā ā ā -jockeys in the AwFuL media would be falling over themselves to report itā¦
Pretty much my thoughts
Iām hoping heās not the type that has given up on his career. itās concerning the condition heās in mentally and physically
Canāt dispute any of that. Itās fact.
Again we really donāt know what the issue was all about. Some things can drag on an on weighing you down and unable to / extremely difficult to gain closure from
Something got to him, was weighing on his mind late season and got to the point where had to step away from playing games but kept training. Once season was done on holidays maybe still dealing with the issue for the months following on, maybe worse with no football/training structure as a distraction.
Definitely a concern. Can he get past/through the issue and regain his drive to be elite level player? We all sure hope so
The fact he had engaged with a PT before preseason and was still there first day of gives me some faith regardless of how he presented.

This is what Iām worried about
At least this time Brady didnāt bring race into it.
I doubt thereāll be any word coming from the club until after training restarts in the new year, and maybe not even then.
