Semi apparently medial ligament 6-8 weeks

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Not good about semi.

Anyhow while I don't want to concede defeat I would rest all our injured players for next two weeks, give them time to heal. Souths/ wsrriors are tough games (which really we will be underdogs) and prefer to be fit and ready for titabs/tigers - win those two games and we have a 3 from 6 start for year - which is as good as any time in the last 20 years.

So not ACl?

No, he didn't do his ACL. I think Champion may of.

f**kKKKKKK

Semi apparently medial ligament 6-8 weeks

Well there is two contradictory posts.

 

[Chipmunk]

Ive got a really bad feelling that we are going to be that team in the comp this year that gets decimated by injuries and suspensions in the first half of the season and falls a long way off the pace.

 

[I bleed blue & gold]

Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease don't let it be his ACL.

Maybe, I think Sandow is the most important player. We need him but do have some depth to replsce a further others. I think we have 3-4 more forwards (as long as they aren't all picked at once) that could do the job. We have a few backs and a coupe of big wingers.

Also apparently we do have cap space, so we could sign a player or too.

I'm guessing using Wicks tonight we've dipped into the second tier cap as well.

Pou will answer that

 

[Utey]

I think bigger squads like BA has drummed up will be the norm in the next few years for this exact reason. Depth is just so vital in a competition that has an increasing trend of serious injuries.

 

[Gronk]

f**k.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Pou will answer that

Yeah he's probably outside the top 25, with a hefty match payments component.

 

[Gronk]

No matter cos our cap was expecting Hayne, right ?

 

[hindy111]

Mortimer still part of cap

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Can't really blame the club for still giving Morts something. Those eyes are like tiny windows into Heaven.

The second tier cap is entirely independent of the top 25 cap, although players can move from one to the other when another player enters or leaves the top 25 (e.g. Hayne).

However I'm convinced that one of our new recruits (Champion, Takairangi, Robinson) was brought in to replace Hayne, and that the club knew about it well before his official announcement.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

With Kenny being ruled out for the season before the season started, we should be able to get some 2nd tier cap dispensation.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Is that how it works? Edwards would be top 25 for sure.

I think the club have to make a case, but that seems to be how things have worked in the past.
