Think Elliott Whitehead has heard the story about Robbie Kearns? Fair enough if the news of a footballer falling off a horse didn't grab his attention as a 10-year-old in Bradford. Even if the Canberra Raiders back-rower knows about the time Kearns came off a horse during an ill-fated NSW State of Origin bonding session in 1999, in turn busting his shoulder and missing 12 weeks of football, it probably wasn't going to stop Whitehead jumping on one this week. What would you do if you'd been stuck at home for the best part of two months and the isolation bubble finally bursts? Whitehead and Jack Wighton went horse riding after the NRL eased restrictions on players - and thankfully avoided the fate suffered by Kearns. "We've been stuck at home for quite a while now, nearly two months. A few of us got out on Monday and played a bit of golf," Whitehead said.
