Is Keary definitely out for 6 weeks?

The only articles I can find state “up to 6 weeks” and 4-6 weeks.

I reckon he’s a decent chance of being right for Origin 2 as that will be 4 weeks on the sideline.

Anyone give Gutherson a chance if he plays real well v Sharks and Broncos next 2 weeks?

Either centre or on the bench?

Nope (unless injury crisis). They won't drop both centres. Josh Morris played well and they will stick with Latrell. If Keary comes back the bench utility will be either Whighton or Walker

 

[Twizzle]

Latrell surely wont play that bad again

 

[Gary Gutful]

Latrell surely wont play that bad again

You'd hope not. Easily the worst game I have seen him play.

How was the climax meeting?

 

[hindy111]

Id put Tariq sims in team and Turbo tom. Fergo would be there as well. Over cotric and carr.
Crighton can go.

Moses for Walker. I actually feel Moses and Cleary would be a great combo..

 

[Gary Gutful]

How was the climax meeting?

Pretty uneventful. It ended up finishing at 10.30 so I was able to watch the replay on Fox.

Listening to Robbo on 360 the other night it seemed the 6 weeks were locked in

I already had 2hrs sleep by then.

Ah shit. That sucks then.

 

[Gazzamatta]

When Townsend rips Parra a new one on Saturday his inclusion will be debated no doubt. I dont give Moses or Brooks any chance.

 

[Dibs]

Maybe. If I was Keary I’d be trying to push for an early return

 

[Happy MEel]

Definitely. He has apparently been cleared by professionals of a serious head concussion. I’d say it’s mostly precautionary but he’d be telling everyone he could that he’s fine.

 

[Snoochies]

Klemmer gone, fractured wrist.

But why didn’t Freddie put him back on!

 

[Dibs]

But why didn’t Freddie put him back on!

Apparently not because he broke his wrist

 

[Soren Lorenson]

If I was the coach, I'd pick Wighton to start. Walker out. Reynolds in. Cleary out. Finucane in. Crichton out. Lodge in for Klemmer. McLean on bench. No utility. Slap Paas around before the game to make him angry.
