Hall, Morris, Smith all due back this week?

[Crab]

A match fit Ryan Hall is going to scare the shit out of our opposition , give him time and enjoy the carnage. Exciting times to be a Rooster supporter

[Frozen Chook]

BMoz has a minor to medium grade MCL 6 to 8 weaker vs an ACL which is 6 to 8 monther. So I think different circumstances but BMoz starts ahead of Ikavalu everyday.

agreed

[The Marshall]

Do you think the same for BMoz? Has Ikavalu done enough to keep it until he loses it based on performance?

We need a STRONG winger to match TOOP's incredible efforts of late

I am looking forward to seeing Hall get a run during SOO, but only after he has had a couple of games for Norths if that's possible. I don't know if he is registered to play for them. Morris would be the logical fill in for Teddy during that time. Hall is strictly a winger and we only have one wing spot available so it will be a contest between him and Morris when they are both fit. Good problem to have.

Heard Robbo give an update at the end of the Press Conference on Hall and Morris
He said Hall would be ready this week and he wanted to give him a run in the Norths side initially, however Norths have a bye this week
He then said Morris still has another week to go.

If Morris & Hall are both fit Morris will be in the side one million percent. Hall will be slowly introduced back to footy through the Bears unless Tupou, Ikuvalu, Morris & Manu are all injured.

Halls big enough to run in the pigs. Don't know about the motor, but could be a bench shock weapon.

Maybe,though I think its wing or bust for Hall.We have a lot of quality and depth for our bench options so it would take another 2 or probably 3 injuries to our forwards for him to be considered. Will only take an injury to Morris and he will be up.Anyway, I think if hes not a regular first choice selection by the back end of the year he may head back to SL or try his luckwith another NRL team.

Verills is not in top 30 and needs exemption from NRL to play, which did happen for Melb. He doesn't do much for the Bears from what I have seen. Happy to use Radley for a few more weeks at least. Hall will play as soon as he is ready Morris knows he is the 3rd man of the wheel if everyone is fit. You will play a $600k player before a $180k player whenever possible. Hall is a beast and has broken every record in the gym possible.

Do you really think we would have let Fergo go to Parramatta for 500 only to turn around and sign Hall for 600?

I think Morris is ahead of Hall, who has been out for an extended period with injury. Morris has performed at least as well as Hall over his career and more recently absolutely stared for us in the World Club Challenge.

I agree, Morris is proven at NRL level and has the versatility in being able to cover Fullback and perhaps Centre at a pinch. Hall is a Winger and only a Winger.

Hall $600K, This is just laughable.

On the Chooks website it shows Verrills in the top 30 squad - I assume he was promoted when Garvie dropped out due to his ongoing injury issues. So Verrills should be available for selection without any input from NRL HQ. Will be interesting to see if he gets any game time over the next few weeks.

Am looking forward to seeing Ryan Hall in Chooks colours once he has clearance to come back from that ACL injury.

[SupermanSupportsEasts4Eva]

Will be interesting to see what Hall can actually do. Only seen him play in a coulpe of SL replays on fox. And caz it was SL I didn't really pay attention.

Other than SOO I dare say that they both play if Robbo wants to give either Latrell or Teddy a rest before the finals.

Verrills has been named on the extended bench for the last 2 weeks, that's after the Melbourne game. So doesn't that mean he has been available for those two games. According to Wikipedia he IS in the top 30.
