Yeah, Massoud sounded pretty confident and he has had the good mail on Parra in recent times.
Yep the main thing is the fitness test, but IMO they have a fair idea of whether he will pull through it or not.well the thing is, you can be as confident as you want but it's not the sort of injury that you can have a punt on what the chances are of you playing...saturday arvo will be the clear indicator.
I hate the fact Moi Moi said he "Cayless tells me when to run". If Moi is quite we will know why...
the whole thing could have been a smokescreen to take some of the media away from some of the younger guys.
no he was injuried but not near as bad as they are making out and is a certain starter, just wanted to take the spotlight of Hayne, Inu etcYeah...we play most of the semi final a man down because we take our captain off when we are losing to make sure the young players in the grand final next week dont feel as much pressure...
with our back row capable of playing 80min each, we really only need 30 mins out of him minimum and his experience would go a long way. I think he is worth a small risk.
From memory Didn't HJ get Glenn Lazarus up and running for the 1999 decider?..or was it one of Glenn's relations..
