Maybe it was driving his car, maybe it was the gigantic oaf wacking him in the back of the head/neck area, maybe it was from going bowling.

who can say how CNK injured his neck

Our fullback hurt himself too and is out for 8 weeks. We managed to accept it and not blame it on the opposition who had done nothing wrong.

Well Kikau did do something wrong. he hit him with an illegal tackle ???

It was a penalty, that's all. Kikau's wrist brushed the back of his head. He stayed on another 10 minutes or so and had to come off (on a HIA for a neck injury mind you), having slumped to the ground after a perfectly legal Yeo tackle. It's a very long stretch to suggest the Kikau tackle caused a delayed reaction 10 minutes later. The NRL physio is unable to pinpoint the cause of the injury, I'll take his judgement over yours.

I've watched it many times. Penalty sufficient. Take it up with the MRC.

I was expecting he might get a grade 1 seeing how they've hammered him previously but it wasn't even that.

The lads in green to get home in a tight and fierce contest. Big blow for the raiders with CNK out

I dont even think it should of attracted a charge... maybe a grade 1 careless. You are just being very cute here.

Caleb Aekins will be solid at the back and I’m looking forward to seeing him play.

He was quality coming through the ranks and he never got much of a shot with us.

After getting robbed last week Eels will drop a couple in a row

This has all the makings of a humdinger

Which forward pack will steal the others lunch money? Find out, only on Fox Sports.

Raiders can mostly defend, we have no attack. Although the guy in 5th row was unmarked so there's that I guess.
Raiders win.

8 games at fullback last year gave the club a pretty good look at him. For the most part rock solid under the high ball and ran the ball back reasonably well but that's about it. He's a very decent back up fullback, something our club decided we didn't need this year.

 

[chrisD]

Aekins be basic.

Wackiness vs Baldness

 

[legend]

I don't really care. Our spine is bipolar and our outside backs are geriatrics. Stuart's use of the interchange bench is laughable for other teams and tragic four ours.

I can foresee a Jack Wighton 2 point field goal on the stroke of full time.

Parra by 12.

But was it a confident swinging arm?

Please tell us more about Panthers footy, fullback injuries, players they've let go and their Spotify play lists. We can set up a secondary Raiders v Eels thread in the "Other Sports" forum, all good...
