Inglis and DJ injured in origin...

[1999]

dallas made a miraculous comeback in one of the more courageous efforts ive seen in footy for awhile, knocked out in the 1st tackle, then came back for the 2nd half and made 30+ tackles!!!:shock: im assuming he might be rested this weekend against the rabbitohs, but greggy's injury was far less convincing, from the way i saw him limping i'd say not good but certainly not as bad as tate's, maybe a grade 1 or 2 medial, maybe 3-4 weeks? anyone got and reliable source and/or info?

Johnson was astounding.

In regards to GI, I really hope it's not longer than a 5 week injury. We'll need him to have at least 5 weeks of decent form at 5-8th going into the finals.

What's more, I think Craig will be forced to play Cammy Smith now for the remainder of the season due to injuries when he probably would have liked to rest him about now.

He can rest Smith, but probably not until next week when Cronk returns. Having both of them out of our side will destroy us.

Johnson will probably be rested. Inglis out is a bit tough considering Falou is out too.
Looks like Geyer into five eight and Chambers in on the wing

I just hope GI isn't out long, he was starting to look a lot more comfortable in the 6 jersey and we need a good halves combo coming into the finals. On the other hand, if Boof and Coop forge a good combo, might force Bellamys hand to play GI in the centres in the back half of the season

Damn you dead rubber SOO games, damn you to hell. I hope the CEO's of the clubs grow some balls and get rid of them when the current contract ends.

Dallas was all-heart but the Queensland doctors should be ashamed of themselves for letting him back on the field, secondary concussion can end a career.

As for this weeks games Id like to see Liam Foran get a run and put Aubs at 5/8, doubt it will happen though.

It's not Johnson's head that is the major concern.

He has an injured Groin that may prove to be a big problem.

How good was Cameron Smith, him getting the player of the series I saw coming a mile away.

The boys might struggle on Saturday...Smithy needs to get up for this game and lead from the front.

 

[Cranky]

Brian Waldron just said on SEN that inglis is ok and will play next week. I hope he didn't confuse him with Johnson......

And when hasn't Smith lead from the front?

I take back what I said about pushing GI back out to the centres. Geyer doesn't have the creativity of Inglis and at no point in time did we look creative in the halves. I know Cronk was out, but we really mised Inglis out there last night

 

[Lucas]

Wasn't Geyer's fault. Aubusson fluffed just about every final tackle play. He got lucky with that Matt King try, he totally mis-kicked that one.

Just about had enough of Quinn too, he is absolute rubbish. It was no coincidence that as soon as Izzy came on for him we started to put points on the board.

 

[steaming stormer]

Don't get me wrong, I am not saying Geyer was horrible, I just think it showed that GI is the better option IMO

 

[Captian_Klutz]

Given time GI will be a great 5/8.

A Cronk/Geyer combo is also an excellent pairing.
