Wests Tigers can provide the following Chemist Warehouse Injury Report following the club's Round 20 clash against the NZ Warriors.
Daine Laurie was helped off in the opening minutes of the game and will unfortunately now miss the remainder of the regular season after it was confirmed the fullback has suffered a break to his fibula.
The news is a disappointing end to a superb 2021 campaign from the Dally M Rookie of the Year contender, who played in all 19 matches so far — chalking up 15 try involvements and an average of 134 metres per game.
Laurie will now undergo a specialist review to determine the next course of action.
In better news, Coach Michael Maguire confirmed post-match that captain James Tamou is expected to be available for selection next week against the Bulldogs after he missed last Friday's game with a minor foot injury.
