Just as well we have plenty of backup. Is this the kind of injury that'll force Arthur's to shell out for a mid season transfer to save our season? Or can we cover it from within the squad?

From within the greater squad coverage is always possible, however the level of coverage will not extend beyond the quality of the available back up(s).

Cameron King COULD cover it.
Nelson COULD cover it.
Hell, even Tonise COULD cover it, but would any of these be a satisfactory level of coverage?

Will Smith has been solid and provides good service. If/when he gets a run pass, he will be pretty nippy around the ruck IMHO.

Was not impressed with Nelson last time he was used and King obviously stinks according to BA.

You have to think that's curtains for Kaysa at Parra, right?

I mean, if we go for a mid-season replacement (i.e. Peats, etc) they are going to be better than Kaysa, relegating him to backup next year.

And if we put a backup in 9 for the rest of the year, chances are they could improve beyond Kaysa's level, and take the spot from him full time.

If you ask me, if we have the money to spend on a good 9 now, and get them mid-season it would be suicide to not do it.

Don't forget we also have Robbo too. A few options

I'm hearing Robbo is ready to rumble. Looking fit these days too.

He's contracted at least for next year and the coach loves him.

No club is going to release a better hooker than Kaysa Pritchard.
