News have word that the Raiders high priced benchwarmer Terry Campese feels like playing rugby again:

The former NSW State of Origin playmaker was last night chosen in Canberra’s side to play New Zealand on Saturday night at Canberra Stadium.

Campese, who will play his first game in 12 months, has been forced to overcome a horrendous injury toll. Two knee reconstructions and a serious groin injury have plagued his career over the past three years.

But the champion playmaker believes he’s mentally and physically ready to return.

“I can’t go out there thinking about them (his operations),” he said. “That is when you put yourself in a dangerous position. I have to get out there and not think about the knee. Just get out there and play football.

Sounds like it will end well.
