Gus reckons 4 weeks, so with the rep round could be as few as 2 games, maybe 3.

Strange universe we live in when a player puts another player in a dangerous position and stays on field. Yet another player gets 10 mins in the bin for a penalty were the previous 5 or 6 were given to Penrith.

The previous four or five penalties were against us before Ellis got binned?

That's correct, if you watch it, you will see Maloney arguing with the "referee" that the other side have had 4 penalties against them.

Tom.

The string of penalties against the Raiders were in the first 15 minutes or so and none of them got sent. That is what Maloney was complaining about. Ellis had another Panther (CHN?) on him and couldn't get off until he did. It was a very very tough sinbinning.

Any word on the outcome of Kikau's scans?

It was probably tough given the time period within the string of penalties against us but I just went through and Canberra gave away 4 penalties then the next 5 or so were against us so it seems like 5 is the magic number for a binning.

3 or 4 gets the warning. The next one should be the bin.

Although they're not 100% consistent with that even..we've received a warning and then got a second warning before a binning.

Not to mention JFH off side chasing a kick on their line was one of them. Big difference between that and holding down to slow the ball

Another was the deliberate play the ball into our player, it would have gone dead if there was no one behind it.

That was such a bullshit penalty. They said the officials wouldn't fall for that type of milking a few weeks ago. Short memories.

2/5 penalties there aren't repeated inside the 20. Shocking calls

Update

If he means 2 actual weeks as opposed to games, Kikau may only miss 1 game.

Wallace is now a bicep as opposed to shoulder, although close enough I guess.

Blake should only miss 1 more game.

That’s fantastic news, thanks for posting it. I am so used to us receiving bad news about injuries, that I was fully expecting the outcome of the scans to show that he had suffered some kind of serious injury. Thank heavens it has turned out to be better than expected. Finally a bit of luck for us on the injury front.

I still think we will really miss him against the Roosters, but hopefully we can find other ways to bust the line and score points.

I wonder how Wallace injured his bicep. All the previous reports - even quoting Wallace himself, said it was a shoulder. I remain sceptical that he has been tapped on the shoulder, but it seems odd that his recent injuries have all had an indefinite or vague recovery period.

64 billion dollar question is,how would have we been going if we had no injuries?
