“He’s been moving really well over the pre-season, building strength back into his legs after a few niggles late last year.”
“Surgery isn’t an option for his specific injury, so James will work closely with our medical and strength & conditioning teams throughout his rehab.” Saints COO Simon Lethlean.
Frawley moved to the Saints in the off-season.Â
