Cannings out for 12 weeks

[Pazza]

The raiders have a very physical pack! Wiki and I Hindmarsh are going to put some real pressure on Hindmarsh and Cayless. Davico and O'Hara work hard so it is important to come into this game with 4 props and i think Tsoulos should be in for Cannings. They are both very similar and i dont wanna play around with a winning forumla. Stapleton is giving great effect off the bench.

1st time we will see Hindmarsh v Hindmarsh both times last year Nathan was injured.

How good is Nathan Hindmarsh playing, he has to be the Australian #11!

It is time for him to leave his stamp on rep football!

Our Hindy is the absolute man. A complete 80 minute tackling machine. We are very lucky to have him.

I'f bring in either Tsoulos or Armit as well depending on form.
Also Wiki could be having a little holiday. I'm pretty certain he was put on report in the Cowboys game for a high tackle.

Stapleton played his best game for the Eels tonight, IMO.

Kafusi played well, I thought, at the Ballina trial, but I have not seen him play since. He'd be worth a look in.

Kaufusi looked good in reggies this week copped a couple of high shots tho including one that saw him on the ground for a couple of mins but he may just have been waiting to get the penalty.

what is so bad about Peek?
Armit should come in the guy is just all guts and would never give up!!!

 

[Hurriflatch]

nothing is wrong with Armit he'd be a very good option but there are a number of others aswell.

I have been extremely impressed with Stapo from game 1.

As for Cannings. Eela and I were talking to Caylo last night and he said that it was a definate break. Asked the difference between Caylos injury last year and Cannings this year, apparently Cannings has broken the bone on the outside of his arm wheras Caylo broke the bone on the inside. Whether they take different times to heal, i dont know.

Yeh i saw big Kafusi play a number of time's when he was at manly and back then he was real physical, he plays hard for sure and he wanst scared to step up for a biff either which is the kind of indimidating player we need i think. :twisted: :lol:

 

[Pazza]

I heard Moi Moi is doing really well, maybe he is the man to come into the side?

It was bound to happen to someone!

WHY CANNINGS WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Hurriflatch]

lets hope this is and Hopkins are the only major injuries this year.

There will be niggles during the year players missing a game or tow here and there but I just hope there are no more long term injuries.
