Its a hamstring strain.

Bad news.

Priority is getting it right for the season.

He's so injury prone and that is a worry.


You'd think either Goodwin or Tom will captain the side now. Probably Tom.

 

[Pommy]

Shocked, not.

 

[DiegoNT]

Hamstring tightness isn't the same as a Hamstring strain

 

[Pommy]

That will teach me to take R20s word on the matter.
Truth telling my arse.

You scared the shit out of me R20 haha a hamstring strain is much worse than tightness! Hopefully he's not overtraining, he's like a glass cannon right now!

 

[Travitoh]

He was withdrawn as a precaution, expected to be fine for other trials and most importantly, round 1

Oh I must have misread lol. I thought it said strain.

With Robbie recovering and AR now with a slight injury plus George well word is he's not fit and struggling plus Gosiewski is out for 3 months.

These injuries are concerning.

I would withdraw him from the all stars.

 

[doyen]

I would withdraw him from the all stars.

AR should never have been picked for a rubbish game like the 9s anyway.

Sths should withdraw him from The All Stars game too!!

Why would you risk a bloke that scores 200+ pts year after year!!!!

Is hamstring tightness a precursor to probable more serious injury!!!?????

 

[DiegoNT]

Reynolds should be right to go the all-stars. He'll have an extra week to work on those tight hamstrings. The reason he'd have been withdrawn is because of the nature of 9s, it's played in short sharp spells, most players last mere minutes before being interchanged. So his hamstrings would be going stetched, relaxed, stretched, relaxed, stetched, relax over game, with that being repeated 3 to 7 times over a weekend depending on success with minimal recovery time over the weekend. With the allstars he'll be able to work his way into a whole game and only have to do it once on that weekend. You can't cotton wrap players before the season, you have to give them some playing time before season kickoff

 

[Travitoh]

Potentially, yes but as long as it gets looked after properly it shouldn't be a problem. Tightness is a sign of fatigue/being over worked so a bit of a rest along with proper stretching and a bit of light work should do the trick.

A little bit dissapointed that we won't get to see him destroy the nines like in 2015, but I am also happy because we are no longer risking him getting a more serious injury.

Thank god it's only TIGHT hamstrings and not a strain.

I have had tight hamstrings in the past and they can lead to a serious hamstring injury if they go untreated, especially for playmakers like Reyno because they kick the ball a lot and fully extend their leg. However, they don't take long to fix and Reynolds has great physio's around him that would do hamstring exersises with him everyday so he will be fine.

Our Nines squad is still very strong imo.

Problem is now is who do Souths send as a replacement as I thought the rules state you must have at least 1 of your top 5 earners attend?

I'm guessing this leaves Greg Inglis, Sam Burgess, George Burgess, John Sutton/Robbie Farrah to pick from.

Out of those I'd send Sutto. He's been there before.

Plus he has the organising factor that Reynolds has, somewhat. If he gets injured it won't be as bad if say Reynolds or Inglis did.

Agreed.

Me too.

Reynolds shouldn't have been risked in the Nines anyway. Hopefully he'll stay out of that All Stars rubbish game too!

Correct. The nines don't mean that much in the scheme of things.

Yep I hope he's withdrawn from the All Stars game too.

I would say if he still has any tightness he may not play the Charity Shield either. But I hope he does play in it.

Also Doyen I reckon it wouldn't take much to turn into a strain.

I just hope we don't send Kelly over there. I don't rate him at all.

In fact in the season if we lost AR for a few weeks I would move Sutto to 5/8 and Cody to half or move Farah to half and keep Cody at 6 before I would play Kelly.


I've seen him play a fair bit and sorry but he's not up to it.

Is George Burgess struggling? It's concerning that the Burgess twins may never be able to return to their best with all the injuries they have! I wouldn't worry too much. If injuries hit us badly again we won't do well, but it also allows us to give our rookies a tonne of game experience which is crucial if we're aiming for a premiership in the next few years.
