South Sydney’s training session on Wednesday morning took a drastic turn, as captain Cameron Murray potentially ruptured his Achilles tendon, while fullback Latrell Mitchell sustained a hamstring injury. The club officially announced these setbacks on its website.
According to the statement, Murray’s injury is serious, with scans expected to confirm a ruptured Achilles. Unfortunately, he is likely to be unavailable for several months as he recovers. Meanwhile, Mitchell has been ruled out of the upcoming Charity Shield match due to his hamstring issue, with further scans planned to assess the severity of his injury.
This news undoubtedly casts a shadow over the Rabbitohs as they face a challenging period ahead.
