I still want to know how the heck did Cronk play the GF?
If Widdop was at the roosters, would he have played in the semi he missed for us?

Or more to the point Bellyache must have had a plan if Cronk played ? Didn't look like it.I know he was standing back so far but in retrospect the fact they didn't pressure the "hero " by running at him in numbers with the ball in their hands .Bet he is still sweating over the game .

Well that may explain Host's perceived lack of improvement last season when he did play.Complete shoulder reconstruction !! Hope he is raring to go in 19 as he could be very handy as a replacement forward.

I note there is no mention of Lomax's slight hamstring injury.

 

[Dragonsamy]

I note there is no mention of Lomax's slight hamstring injury.

That's because he could play if picked.
He will be 18th man imo

 

[George Dragon]

I note there is no mention of Lomax's slight hamstring injury.

I notice there is no mention of all the other slight injuries the players have.

Pickworth is getting great at saying a lot without saying anything. Mind you the interviewer must have pre-approved questions as we already had an injury update from Widdop himself a few weeks ago. Mentioned Blacker, Allgood and Nicholls all had injuries, but like what were they, how serious etc, only they are ok this week to play. Spare me days!!!!

Blacker has a pec injury
Allgood rib cartilage
Nichols reinjured his shoulder.

 

[Walpole]

Anyone else think that "high performance" is an exaggeration?

Heard on NRL tonight yesterday that Widdop is reportedly seeing the surgeon today regarding him starting to work out on his shoulder and may be back in 4 weeks....seems like a waste of time if you ask me ...to little to late Im afraid
