Wests Tigers five-eighth Benji Marshall is confident he can overcome a knee injury and take on the Canberra Raiders in the sudden death semi-final at Canberra Stadium this Friday night.
Marshall left the field in the 75th minute after suffering a knee injury in the loss to the Sydney Roosters on Saturday night. A scan taken after the match showed the medial was still intact. Marshall did not take part in the teams light games session this morning.
I feel alright. Ive had a few sleepless nights just trying to ice up and do everything I can to be right, Marshall said.
I am reasonably confident and it is just a matter of how much work I put into it is what I am going to get out of it. It is all about recovery at the moment.
There is a premiership at stake and I will do everything I can. If it hurts I am going to have to go through a bit of pain.
I will know more tomorrow or Wednesday but going on the last couple of days, it looks promising.
I am sure the coach will give me every opportunity p to game day. Even if I cant train this week, he has got enough faith in me to know that I will still be able to do the job.
If I think I will be right game day, I will play.
