It is believed Dragons prop Korbin Sims played out the first half of Sunday's win over the Knights with a fractured arm.

The 27-year-old, playing his second game as a Dragon after crossing from the Broncos over the summer, is thought to have sustained the injury in the 25th minute of the Dragons' 13-12 win before remarkably staying on the field until half-time.

Dragons coach Paul McGregor said a half-time evaluation revealed the extent of Sims' injury.

"Weโ€™re not having too much luck there. It looks like heโ€™s broke his arm," McGregor toldย NRL.com.

"Coming from our medical staff, they werenโ€™t sure how bad it was and certainly Korbin was displaying to the medical staff that heโ€™d like to stay there and try to work through it.

"Then at half-time, the doctor had a look at it โ€ฆ and the choice was made that heโ€™s not to return to the field.

"We still donโ€™t know if itโ€™s broken by the way โ€“ it could be a bad cork โ€“ but heโ€™s broke one in the past and heโ€™s had that strapped before the game."

The Dragons play host to the Bulldogs on Sunday.
