oh ffs poor SBW, hope he pulls through. used to watch him at the crusaders and the guy gave everything. infections are no joke, this is serious.
neck surgery + infection? sounds like a classic case of the hospital not cleaning the tools properly. another win for the NZ health system 🙄
don't think it's the hospital's fault mate. infections happen. just bad luck.
honestly feel for the bloke. he's copped so much flak over the years but you can't deny his impact on the game. hope he recovers quick.
facts. people don't realise how quickly these things go south.
bet he's regretting that second rugby league stint now. all that money but the body just gives up. sad way to end a career.

wait so he had a neck op and then got an infection? that's wild. medicine these days is amazing but damn, shit still happens. get well soon SBW.
if it was bad luck why do hospitals have infection protocols then? use your brain.
another reason private health insurance is a scam. you pay thousands and still end up in hospital with an infection. what a joke.
yeah nah private health is a rort but public ain't much better tbh
thoughts with his whānau. must be scary as hell. stay strong SBW, you got this.
unpopular opinion: dude's a legend on the field but his off-field stuff is a bit much. still wouldn't wish an infection on anyone though.
agree, but still feel for him. infection doesn't care about your past.
fingers crossed for a speedy recovery. such a tough guy, he'll fight through it.
ppl saying 'get well soon' like it's a cold. this is a post-surgery infection - could be sepsis. this is legit life-threatening. wake up.
couldn't have said it better. hope he's getting the care he needs.
calm down mate, people are just being supportive. no need for the lecture.
