Raymond Faitala-Mariner has revealed how he lost six kilograms after being bed-ridden with a bout of pneumonia as the Bulldogs prepare to send Josh Reynolds out in style at Belmore Oval.
“It started off like a ‘flu and then there was this one training session where it was really cold,” Faitala-Mariner said. “I shouldn't have trained but I trained anyway - I trained, being ill - and one thing led to another.
"I actually thought pneumonia was only for the elderly people until I spoke to the doctor and he said anyone can get it,” Faitala-Mariner said.
