Injury Updates

[Gazzamatta]

Have Stone, Matto and Waqa played more or missed more games since joining Our Eels? Would be touch and go I reckon. You need to be more than a good player to be value for money particularly when their cost is twice their worth if they only average one game in two. Decision time.
Somebody will probably try prove me wrong but I'm not having a great day so fu*c you in advance.

The top clubs tend not to buy/keep the stars who miss a lot of games. Those merkins end up at the weaker clubs, and I suspect they earn as much as if they never got injured.

Rheed on yesterday's Footy Show. When asked about Matto. Rheed said he was training but "it's up to him now". Seems a strange comment to make. Could explain why he's being selected each week then withdraws late.

I got the feeling that it was Matterson ruling himself out.

That's pretty much what Rheed said. Strange. Similar happened last year then there's his criticism of how The Tigpies handled his injury there and probably the reason he left. Strange.

we need to wait until he bails for big coin at some other club before we all say what we think

I'd be really surprised if there is much appetite for him elsewhere. Maybe at a reduced price but I don't think that would be in Mattos plan.

Nothing strange about it. If he’s still getting headaches, only he will know. Obviously he wants to be 100% and feeling no effects of the concussion

Given the drop in his value I'm certain he'll still be with us next year.

So, round nine and a half?

Is our round 10 game a Thursday or Sunday?
Edit:
Round 9 V Chooks Friday
Round 10 V NZ Sunday (Magic Round)

I had to lookup what a hip pointer injury was:

A hip pointer is a deep bruise to the ridge of bone on the upper outside of your hip, called the iliac crest. It's often a result of a direct blow to the hip or a hard fall. Hip pointersymptoms include pain and tenderness. Recovery from the injury usually involves taking a break from activity until it heals.

Google tells me recovery. Is generally 1-3 weeks.

1 to 3 weeks is for pusseys. Nrown will probably train tomorrow. He's got a $500 to $600k career to consider.

Depends if it’s a pointer or flexer.

Pointer is bone bruising but apparently horrible pain wise. Some can play with it, but need a week or two.

flexer is a muscle tear, not as painful but can’t run with it so 3-4 weeks usually
