Troops arriving back from injury

[ArtiesArmy]

I would give young Walker 2 spells before the finals, to give mind and body a rest.

Billy Smith back in Round 12...

Agree that young Walker will need a decent break from the physicality during the season,(as will the twins). When Lam, Keighran and Hutch are around, we have some solid options in the halves. With Radley back the team dynamic is changing and I think we are going to have a very strong, battle hardened squad at the pointy end.

Good signs that Hutch took on the line. I watch the game for entertainment. Shame he good caught twice on the last but he also nearly broke through once or twice. And as soon as he does, suddenly the fickle pen will be going on about how good he is. I also come on here for entertainment.

This from the NRL Physio on Collins

Lindsay Collins has passed all concussion protocols, but is still unavailable for Roosters selection due to an ankle injury. Hopeful for a return in the next few weeks.

Wouldn’t mind signing someone like Kurt Baptiste for the rest of the season, still kicking around in QLD Cup and knows our system

Better option than Marschke

He wouldn't make it 10m before being caught.

I’m much the same. Though I thought you were a more hard core, must win, kinda fan. You’ve been hanging out with Mickie too long. You been inhaling?

Nah he’s a good boy & doesn’t do that. I think it’s just you & me Skeez.
Thirteen is the Jake Friend of the Chookpen, I’m more the Lachie Lam of the Chookpen maligned & you Skeez your the Isaac Liu ice cool always consistent.

[Mad_Rabid_Rooster]

While I haven't been Hutch's biggest fan, I have to give credit where it is due. He had a solid performance last Sunday and could have secured his spot for the next little while. He deserves some luck and his opportunity. I wish him well.

I also rate Adam Keighran, and believe that he will feature reasonably prominently over the remainder of this season.

I think there maybe a reason why no NRL club has picked Baptiste up for 2021 though. Now playing for the Sunshine Coast in the QLD Cup.

Benny Marschke knows the System too coming through the Junior pathways as they call it and played NYC with Butcher/Radley/Manu/ Tupouniua so would fit in combo wise when and if required.

Not that he played in the NYC GF in 2016 -part of the squad - but always good to see the highlights- commentators saying Chooks are gone and Penrith will put 50 on them etc when down 28-6 at Half time
