SAS Australia 2023’s Boyd Cordner has allegedly suffered a secret injury at Base Camp, so it seems he’s been literally tearing things up.

According to The Daily Telegraph, the former NRL star has been secretly recovering from a pectoral muscle tear he sustained whilst filming. Ouch.

The injury comes after the ex-Sydney Roosters player was forced to hang up his rugby boots in 2021 after a series of concussions.

“It was an extremely tough decision for me to make,” the athlete said in a statement at the time. 

“My heart was telling me that I wanted to play on and my head was telling me otherwise and I don’t think that was safe at all.

“I feel like I have a lot more to give to the game and this club, but I can take peace from what I have done in the game, my career and my achievements,” he added.

What is SAS Australia’s Boyd Cordner doing now?

The 31-year-old has remained in close proximity to his love for rugby, as he now has a coaching role at the Sydney Roosters NRL.

“I just missed [rugby] a bit too much to my liking and I’ve been enjoying my involvement with the game elsewhere,” he dished to nswrl.com.au.
