Gold Coast Titans forward Tino Fa'asuamaleaui has suffered an NRL preseason setback, injuring his knee in a training accident which will sideline him until Christmas

4 December 2021 - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

Fa'asuamaleaui attended a meet-and-greet for Titans members yesterday in a brace and says he can't do any running until the team reassembles in the New Year.

He says they had a wrestle session and he copped some friendly fire, resulting in an MCL injury.

The setback shouldn't prevent Fa'asuamaleaui from being fit for the start of the Titans' 2022 campaign.
