2019 Injuries

[TooheysNew]

PONGA INJURY IS LONG TERM???

No. Lose the caps

 

[NK Arsenal]

Edrick Lee broken arm according to Brown in the presser

Guess this opens the door for Moga.

 

[Old dog]

Would hope with Lee likely out for a while that we stick with Hunt at centre and find a winger even if it is Moga but Cooper could be good choice.
I’m tipping that Pearce has done an injury to leg/thigh/knee, looked to be feeling it at start of second half, may be reason for poor kicks and Lino kicking more in second half, hope I’m wrong.

Pearce has been getting phantom injuries the week before origin selection this year. Great work by the lad.

 

[slotmachine]

Not phantom, just wants to be 100%. And who could blame him after all the heat he has copped over the years.

Ponga to miss the next 2 games.

[Silent Knight]

Origin, the gift that keeps on giving.

 

[Jesfery]

Spose that doesn't make much difference to us. He would probably have missed the Dogs game anyways.

 

[Zoidberg]

Don’t need him.







No, but seriously, better to have him out now instead of (hopefully) the last few weeks running into finals.

 

[Burns]

Best news for us. Isn’t wasted playing meaningless Origin match, and out for two winnable games.

 

[Yosh]

Was he playing Origin injured? Would explain why he played so crap and got so easily out leapt by Turbo for the first try.

Great news for NSW thoughm

Injury was apparently during Origin. I don't know at what stage.

 

[Haffa]

Two games he’d have missed for us anyway. At least we can keep him in treatment with our medical team.

 

[PhilGould]

Kalyn Ponga (Calf - Round 18)

Edrick Lee (Arm - Round 25-Finals)

Slade Griffin (ACL - Late season)

Danny Levi (Ankle - Round 16)

 

[Old dog]

Griff can’t be far away, water boy, if Levi back this round and Griff soon will give us a bit more flexibility

 

[mozza91]

I don’t think he’s coming back anytime soon. He’s still limping noticeably.

 

[PhilGould]

Fitzgibbon out for 4-5 weeks.

[NK Arsenal]

Fitzgibbon out for 5 weeks with a disclocated elbow

Going to test our forward depth now. Assuming this unfortunately means that JB will be starting on that edge

 

[Silent Knight]

Hang on I'll jump in the Delorean and bring back Simmo in his prime. Back soon.

That sucks about Fitzy, he's been playing some great footy . Time to give Brodie Jones a run
