Murraymob that's not what you originally said.

Change of training staff has certainly changed our luck on the injury front .none for 2 years now stacks already

Gee it's early in the year to be playing the blame game.

Do you think if they had those injuries at the start of the season they really would've 'managed' them and let them play? That is crazy they got them to play because it was the finals. We have the same head physio we had that time last year for the record. The head of high performance went to Newcastle where they have had multiple injuries including Ponga, Safiti, and season ending one for Brailey amongst others.

It’s March!!!

Gotta get in early and beat the price rise

 

[Black Diamond]

We will win this game with or without him. It is Round 3. Hopefully have 27 more weeks of the season to go.

So if he isn't fit enough to be named on Tuesday then just wait

Yes, this is exactly what I said. They wont risk him if not fit.

Most clubs (in fact nearly all clubs) have similar abilities in regards to how injuries are managed.

Injuries sadly or lack of them are often due to nothing more than luck.

Living up here in the Hunter I am of a similar view.

I would like to think that Penrith can still win even with the players out, it's a chance for the backup players to shine.

Pretty sure they all missed some games through injury over the last two years mate.

All 3 pulled out yesterday. Would play if a final

 

[Luke Bowden]

Word is Kenny is out.

If so makes the bench much better

Why is he out?

 

[DinkyDi]

Why is he out?

And who will replace him?

 

[Iamback]

Especially this time of the year

Round 3 last year.
Api
Cleary
Edwards goes off mid game

Across the comp is the same. Coaches don't risk guys yet

 

[Iamback]

Why is he out?

Virus

 

[Iamback]

Let's talk about the real hot topic from Team List Tuesday - Harry Grant named at #9 at 4pm. Then at 4:45pm, is announced to have COVID, and is out of the game.

Why bother naming him them? It's just burning a spot in your usable squad.


They have also named Brandon Smith at #23 - less than two weeks removed from a broken hand. Surely he's not right to go.


So they're left with Tyran Wishart at #14, Jayden Nikorima at #21 and possibly Nick Meaney at #19 to cover their Hooker rotation. And none of them are gonna get the job done against a big and mobile Eels pack.


So either:
a) Grant doesn't have COVID and will play
b) Smith has recovered and will play
c) The JOB Squad will fill the gaps and they'll lose

But if elite coaches don't play games, does that mean Bellamy is no longer elite?

f**k my head is starting to hurt

Smith confirmed starter. If Storm put a regular in the reserves they play

I was told he won't hurt it worse. Was only named if Grant was out

How do we keep firming in the betting whilst losing more players?

I have no idea. Perhaps you should ask the betting agencies.

Punters are throwing dollars down .the odds have nothing to do with the team they change depending where the money is going .looks like the punters don’t rate the knights

I am not a betting lady, can you, please, explain betting odds? All I know is the higher the price the better return one gets on their money.
