Our Playr of the season so far looks likely to miss the rest of the season

[RHYTHM AND STEALTH]

Poor Sammy. Was having his best season ever to. Doesnt look good so hopefully Price is back sooner rather than later

 

[Dr Crane]

well it would be consistent with the theme of the year.

A real bummer- as soon as I happened, a sense of despair came over me about the season. As it is, it is a great opportunity for Packer to step up and for young players like Poching and Gavet?

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

What's the prognosis with Maloney? Can we also assume our #1 halves pairing has failed to last 2 weeks again?

 

[Drzoidberg]

And the thunder rolls.....more injuries destroying the season

 

[Dr Crane]

i saw maloney being taken back across to the warriors sheds on the back of a st. john ambulance cart afterwards, so he's probably f**ked for a while. fantastic.

Totally agree that Sammy has been our best player so far this year. Really feel for him.

 

[Rovelli]

Sam has been our best this season. It's really sad, because his development this year was coming on in leaps and bounds.

We have always earmarked him as a successor to Pricey, and this year he has really delivered.

 

[Dr Crane]

one tribe forum is claiming cleary confirmed he's done for the year.

Why was Poching punted

Why was Poching punted

No idea- Cleary went for both Matulino and Brown I suppose

 

[hitman82]

Apparently Poching picked up cracked ribs in the Vulcans game. Which I assume means he won't be playing. Which means we have to magically create a good front rower in 5 days.
Packer stepped up yesterday, can he do it again?
I assume Cleary will go with Packer and Royal to start, Matulino and Latimore off the bench. To be honest that really sucks, especially looking at the bench. But what else can we do?
Gavet? Taai to play prop? I'd like to see that haha.

 

[Rovelli]

We're playing the Tigers this week, who are almost like us. They have a very mobile pack and some great second-rowers.

They are also like us in that you never know which team is going to turn up.

The good thing about Rapira is he turns in the same performance, more or less, week in week out. We will miss that

 

[Rich102]

Actually, I think Royal has been going pretty well yhe last couple of weeks.
He made 31 tackles against Souths - which, for the time he was on, was great.

 

[One Warrior]

Good news, Rapira is not out for the season, has a dislocated Patella, does not require surgery, will be back in about 6 weeks. Also Maloney is doing well and could be back this week against the Tigers. This was just on Radio Sport.

 

[Iafeta]

Brilliant news. Yeah, Royal has been doing a good, solid, manful no frills job. His go forward is quite good, its been his dropped balls earlier in the season that cruelled us. Lately though he's been solid as a rock.

Vodafone Warriors prop Sam Rapira could be back on the field in six weeks after being cleared today of a potential season-ending knee ligament injury early in the second half of yesterday’s gritty 26-24 11th-round NRL victory over South Sydney at Mount Smart Stadium.
Fears Rapira may have needed major surgery were allayed after he had a scan today.
“His ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) isn’t torn as we thought it may have been,” said Vodafone Warriors doctor John Mayhew.
“Instead he has a dislocated patella. Surgery won’t be required and with rehabilitation it’s possible he could be back in six weeks.”
Standoff James Maloney, who was forced off the field after only 24 minutes yesterday, has bad bruising to his back. He was moving more freely today and is rated a chance of being fit to play against Wests Tigers in Friday night’s 12th-round clash at Campbelltown Stadium.
