After an e-bike collision knocked his campaign off track, a remorseful Billy Smith is determined to remain in the saddle for the rest of the Sydney Roosters' season.
Smith is arguably the unluckiest player in the competition, with a horrific run of injuries restricting the 26-year-old to just 48 first-grade games since his 2019 debut.
The talented centre was poised to start the year with a bang but his season was interrupted with an abrupt crash when Smith - not wearing a helmet - fell off the back of an electric bike being driven by teammate Egan Butcher.
As a result of a concussion sustained in the crash, Smith missed the Roosters' round two grudge match with South Sydney and only returned to NRL action in Saturday's defeat to Melbourne after being kept on the sidelines by a fresh knee issue.
