A bit surprised this wasn't posted in this thread earlier....regardless of what happens between him and Levi when/if he's back playing, I'm really pleased to hear Slade's progress - he epitomises the sort of commitment and effort you want from any player. That injury would have seen 99.9% hang up their boots for good

Question on whether Slade might retire was raised in this week's team announcement. Shep said he's seen him at training and Slade is 'determined'.

Full respect to this guy, even if he doesn't make it back. Mental fortitude for days.

Knights skipper Mitchell Pearce has been ruled out of NSW State of Origin contention with a groin strain but is in no real danger of missing the club's next clash against South Sydney at ANZ Stadium on Friday week.

"One of the ligaments in there is a bit loose but we won't know for sure until the results of the scans come back. They were talking a worst case scenario might be four weeks but obviously, I'm hoping I might be back for the next game. We'll see what happens. The bye's come at a good time for me."

The boy sounds confident as well, the team must be buzzing

Toohey now saying Levin's injury worse than first expected and he's hearing 4 to 6 weeks.

NAME REASON EXPECTED RETURN
Slade Griffin ACL Indefinite
Jacob Saifiti Leg Indefinite
Danny Levi Ankle Round 18
Aidan Guerra Ankle Round 22

 

[PhilGould]

Saifiti has been back playing reserve grade for a couple of months.

 

[Old dog]

Don’t know about a couple of months but at least a couple of games

 

[PhilGould]

Made his return in round 5 so a month and a half

Don’t know about a couple of months but at least a couple of games

Had 5 games in cup this year. He missed one recently but I don't think it was ever announced why, maybe just a niggle.

 

[Zoidberg]

Wished it was better but at least he should hopefully be back for a run towards the finals.
Not a bad replacement if they put Connor at 9. Needs to pass a bit quicker from the play the ball though.

 

[Knight Vision]

devastating news. Watson or Buhrer arent D Levi. The service from dummy half will be slower and less accurate. Hope Danny's a quick healer.

Maybe he should take up the Jarrod Mullen school of recovery....maybe not

 

[Frederick]

6 to 8 weeks at the best possible time. If we run with best case scenario, he could only miss three games for us and be back in time for the game at home against the warriors:

Bye
Rabbits
Storm
Bye
Broncos
Warriors

8 weeks has him back for the Roosters game
