We will have 17 fit players next week?

[The Thracian]

At present we have more injured than fit, never seen an injury toll this bad this early, too early to call for a development season ?

[Yeception 7]

Billy Smith ACL
Brett Morris calf
Lachlan Lam MCL
Luke Keary ACL
Boyd Cordner concussion
Freddy Lussick broken forearm
Jake Friend Concussion
Jared warea Hargreaves ? Shoulder
Sia Taukeiaho rib
Sam verrils ACL
Its looking that way

[Thirteen]

Yes because we are going to sign a bunch of All Blacks on Tuesday by the time the team needs to be named.

[SupermanSupportsEasts4Eva]

Probably not. SST, JWH injured, Rads suspended

[SupermanSupportsEasts4Eva]

Any chance of Cordner coming back early?

[Rooster_6]

I had heart palpitations when Kafusi snapped Walker’s legs chasing through on that kick. Those legs are all bone!

2002 was worse.

He is hobbling around a bit in the change rooms.

[Tommy Smith]

2002 was worse.

They were at least short term and early in the year.

Keary season
Friend season
Cordner half a season
Verrills 10 wks or so
Rads missed the first month
Collins missed two games
Bmoz out tonight
JWH busted
SST broken rib
Lam 6 wks or so

It's absolutely insane and even worse than last year which you wouldn't have thought possible.

He was limping pretty badly in the change rooms post match.

[fletch]

Robbo just said Verrills is a big chance of returning on Anzac Day.

[tloos1999]

Robbo just said Verrills is a big chance of returning on Anzac Day.

He said he was “close” in terms of returning from the injury. Absolutely nothing mentioned about Anzac Day other than from the reporter asking the question. How does that = a big chance to return on Anzac Day

Worst case scenario for next week with JWH/Tauks/Walker injured if radley picks up a suspension:

1 Teddy
2 Toops
3 J Moz
4 Manu
5 B Moz
6 Keighran
7 Hutch
8 Liu
9 B.Marschke
10 Collins
11 Gus
12 Sitili
13 N.Butch

14 Baker
15 Fifita
16 E.Butch
17 J.Marshke (not much to be excited about but cool two sets of identical twins playing in the same first grade team -when’s the last time that happened - knowing me not that long ago and I’m forgetting it. Know sets of brothers and even twins in the same team but two sets of identical twins? Sorry gone off track after all the trauma)

reserves (getting difficult)
18 Ikuvalu
19 Hau Tapua
20 Suaalii
21 Bailey/C Thomas/Ralph from bears as an exemption OR the flegg or SG Ball number 9

Don’t think Trent is going to mix up the team too much from what they usually play so don’t expect manu at 5/8 (or even hooker)

Hang in there Rooster fans

I have being thinking why don't The Morris Twins play on the same side.
They were really good together when they played on the same side for The Bulldogs.
And plus it could confuse teams seeing double.

[Johnny Brass]

I'd love to see Sualli get a run and give him some valuable game experience , him and Walker are our next generation exciting future.
I don't see the benefit in promoting iku in front of him , he's just a reserve grader and a stop gap measure.
