f**k. Costly selection when backing up after Origin.

Similar to when we kept playing Gutho with a torn meniscus last year. Made it worse in the last game against Penrith and his knee will never be the same

It was just bad luck.

Players play injured all the time. You assume if he hadn’t played after Origin he wouldn’t need a microdickectomy now? Where’s your proof?

How longs he out for?

Probably proof enough he should not have played after Origin

Pre-existing injury before origin.

Pre-existing injury before origin.

So probably shouldn't have played Origin ffs

only if it could medically be attributed to Origin which no one has done as yet

Or all the weeks before that. If we gave every injured merkin a rest until all their injuries were healed we wouldn’t be able to put a team on the field. We would be coming last ffs!

Yeah a back injury is just like every other injury.....

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Not all back injuries are the same. Some are just soft tissue injuries, and Hopgood's obviously wasn't too bad to stop him getting picked for Origin. I reckon the only reason he is getting surgery instead of playing on painkillers is because our season is toast.

Ok.

Oh, so not all the time then...

[Poupou Escobar]

Yes, all the time, like I said.

Just not every time.
