Luckless St George Illawarra centre-threequarter Dylan Farrell will miss the rest of the NRL season after suffering a ruptured pectoral muscle for the second time this year.
Farrell suffered the injury playing for the Dragons feeder club the Illawarra Cutters on the weekend.
It was just the second game back for the 23-year-year old after sustaining the long term injury for the first time against Melbourne in round six.
Farrell impressed early this season in his move from South Sydney and Dragons high performance manager Andrew Gray said it was just a matter of more bad luck for the former under-20s team of the year member.
“It is extremely disappointing for Dylan and the club that scans today have confirmed a second pectoral injury this season,” Gray said in a statement.
“It is the other pectoral muscle to the one he ruptured earlier in the year with the only positive being the fact that he knows exactly what the rehabilitation process is and what is required over the next few months.
“Dylan was carrying the ball and went to fend someone off, his arm was outstretched and the tackler landed on the back of his shoulder and just overstretched that muscle.
“There really wasn’t too much that Dylan could have done it about, it is just extremely bad luck.”
