Justin Poore

[Jodeci]

Those wondering why Justin Poore didn't take the field tonight, he was suffering from dizzy spells & taken to hospital as a precaution.

That's not good, hope Justin is ok. Thanks for sharing that mate.

I hope they got Hayne and Hicks checked out too

 

[Fifty Metre Line]

Thanks for the info.

Kearney's use of the bench seems a little more reasonable now.

Poor old Poore just can't take a trick.

 

[Maroubra Eel]

I suffer these dizzy spells most games too.

 

[True EEL]

hope Poore is alright, that's just hard luck for the bloke...

mind you, i got a bit dizzy during the second half.....and i thought i had double-vision during the first half - i thought the scored indicated that we were in front?!

 

[Stagger eel]

this whole year has been a blur..

 

[True EEL]

this whole year has been a blur..

yes sadly which is why i can't really cop people claiming that the team has found a new attitude etc, we are still the same team we have been for years - wildly inconsistent and mentally weak

this whole year has been a blur..

wish it was, but unfortunately I think all this really happened

i nearly passed out myself when i saw morgan pull his hands from that pass on our goal line

Poore Bloke....

Does it?

I read in one of the reports on the match that Poore had the dizzy spell before the match. Surely here the question has to be asked on why the 18th man (whoever that was) wasnt utilised...

No, that was all Hayne's fault, it is not Morgan's job to attempt to catch the ball, especially if it isn't an ideal pass!!!

I am just thankful I have been up in Newcastle for work for the last year, it has been a welcome distraction!!

 

[bartman]

Bad news for Poore, hope he's ok.

Thanks for the info.

Only reasonable for one out of 20-odd matches. Maybe Poore became dizzy when SK told him that (like other FG benchies throughout the year) he wouldn't actually be used in the game...?

It was a shocker of a pass. I think Morgan instinctively let it go so as to not knock it on.

I hope that teaches Hayne when not to throw a "no look" pass.

 

[hybrideel]

I heard that the dizzy spell started at around the 85km mark in the tour de parra stadium.

In all seriousness though I hope it was nothing bad

I just looked at the press conference and although its difficult to sometimes understand the question being asked it was my impression that Poore didnt even sit on the bench....either that or he was just sitting there in case of a major emergency..... So....no 18th man? They're taking the P^&* arent they?

You can bring the 18th man in on to the bench after the warm up but you can't pull a player in after the game has started. I am assuming that the team was named and he never made the bench however that was too late for the team to be changed......

 

[parra-matters]

SK said he considered bring up Rory Brien who had already played u20's but Poore said he'd be right and then the Doctor during the game decided he should goto hospital to get checked out.
