Just when things started to be looking up for the reigning premiers their star fullback is told he is out for up to 12 weeks.

After a boozy season opening Stewart has alleged to have sexually assaulted a 17-year-old girl outside her family home.

The state of origin fullback was given a four match suspension which cost Manly in their opening games.

Things started to look up; the star scored five tries in just two games and was picked for the Blues in this year’s state of origin series.

But the question lies here, is this karma for the main Manly man or just a stroke of bad luck?

Personally I feel quite bad for Stewart, his name has been dragged to hell and back by the media and the player has done extremely well to prove himself with his five wonder tries.

This is a big blow for Manly and the betting agencies seem to agree, easing Manly from $7 out to $9 following the news of Stewart’s injury.
