The 38-year-old was reportedly on life support as a result of complications from Covid-19.
NRL broadcast legend and former coach Phil Gould posted to social media on Saturday night he'd been told by Pritchard's brother the long-time NRL forward was out of a coma and in a ward.
"Lungs are still weak, but in stable condition. Will keep you updated. Prayers are helping. Thanks everyone," Gould posted on Twitter.
Pritchard was believed to have a collapsed lung and other major health issues as a result of the virus.
