Tough on the club to bag them over players lost.Simple fact if they all come up at once yes you can priorities on players but .Api states he was after a retirement contract burton went to play in the halves
Keeping every player in nice but have the best half and lock in the comp that cost top dollar

Not keeping Api was incompetent

What’s the answer Luke? A 80% fit Nathan Cleary is better than our NSW Cup options, they have been pretty underwhelming. We don’t have a decent half option in Sean O’Sullivan to fall back on. Even if he is playing with a niggle we have no alternative but to soldier on.

Correct, we lack depth and are in a pack with half of the comp. We can't take those risks

Medical staff deemed him fit to play, 9 days off will have him close to 100% this week

They didn't go all in and ending up losing Api and Spencer etc. Atleast if the key spine guys were locked up you have more to cover guys like Spencer leaving

Yet the medical team who knows more than us thought he was fine, 9 days between games too
They didn’t say he was fine.. they said he was playing with a groin injury….. this isn’t hard to comprehend. The club is not hiding the fact that he’s injured.

He blows his groin this weekend and he’ll struggle for weeks. We need him fit.

He's the only first grade 7 at the club. Without him we won't win

We have been well under par in our past two games, so a win by the Tiges if it rains is not out of the question by any means. On a dry track, forget it.

Either Tigers by two in the wet, or a Panthers 40 point romp on a dry track.

Can we move Critter to the wing when defending?
Isnt that how we lost our last game?

Do you think he was the only player to take the field injured this round?

Players do it all the time, Hell we won the comp in 2021 due to playing injured players. Medical staff determine if the player will be re-hurt.

Then decide if they play. Ivan said he did it at training. He would of been assessed as minor so he played.

If it was a 1 week injury, he'd be fit this week anyway

NSW Cup play in Bathurst.

They likely are taking the whole 21 for the week out there.

No one is more critical of our coaching staffs team selections than you. Yet I suggest we rest an obviously injured player for a week and you blow up.. Trust the staff blah blah blah…

Maybe to remember to trust the staff next time you are critical of their team selections…
