Tigers utility Adam Doueihi’s injury woes continue, with the club confirming the 24-year-old has torn his left ACL for the third time.
Doueihi, who was injured in the Tigers’ 28-22 loss to the Eels on Easter Monday, is expected to be sidelined for 12-16 months, according to Tigers Head of High Performance Peter Moussa.
Doueihi will require revision ACL surgery because this is the third such injury to the same knee.
Doueihi’s career has suffered another setback, with only 87 games played for the Rabbitohs and Tigers in six seasons.
The Lebanon representative suffered an ACL injury in his first NRL season with Souths in 2018, then again in Round 21 of the 2021 season before his third on Easter Monday.
Tigers coach Tim Sheens stated postgame that the entire team was “pretty disappointed” by Doueihi’s most recent injury.
“Ask me tomorrow when I wake up and I realise it wasn’t a dream, or a nightmare,” Sheens said.
Doueihi wasn’t the only Tiger injured in the loss to the Eels, with outside back Brett Naden to miss the next 2-4 weeks with a grade 3 AC joint injury.
Sheens has named Brandon Wakeham at five-eighth to replace Doueihi for this Sunday’s clash against Manly, with Daine Laurie to come off the bench.
Starford To’a moves into Naden’s right centre position with Sheens making the call to unleash promising fullback Jahream Bula who is set to make his NRL debut against the Sea Eagles.
