The Bulldogs have been dealt a huge blow ahead of the 2024 season, with young gun Karl Oloapu potentially set to be sidelined for the whole year.
That is according to Channel 9’s Danny Weidler who is reporting the 18-year-old is facing “immediate neck surgery”.
Oloapu had battled with the neck injury during the year and turned down the chance to represent Samoa at the Pacific Championships to rehab the blow.“Rising Bulldogs star Karl Oloapu is facing immediate neck surgery, and the prospect of playing no football in season 2024,” Weidler first posted on Twitter.Karl Oloapu walks off the field.

Following the surgery, club officials will also have to assess his long term future which could see him miss the whole 2024 season. The Bulldogs paid a $500,000 transfer fee to sign Oloapu from the Broncos in 2023, having been touted as one of the best up and coming stars.‘Just went bang’: NRL star rushed to hospitalTodd Carney has left a rehab centre and has spoken out like never before over the dark moment his relationship fell apart.
