.We should probably stick with Miller for the finals instead of rushing Kennedy back.

On the flip side, I thought Hynes played like he didn’t want to get hurt - haven’t looked at the stats, but I bet his runs were well down compared to usual. Also thought Wade had a hint of the ‘don’t get a HIA’ about him today.
We will be an infinitely better team with the energy of Toby and Dale coming back in.
Losing Sifa would be huge, so hopefully he pulls up ok. If not, fingers crossed Tracey is right…. Kennedy back would be a great bonus!
Made one very good tackle in the first half was an absolute try saver.7 runs. 47 forward metres. 3 errors, 3 handling errors. No missed tackles.
I think most of them were in injury avoidance mode until halftime at least.
I don't think anyone should be rushed back prematurely, given the performances from our stand ins, inlcuding Will. There was also a little media talk about Sione Katoa returning, but probably unwise as he's been away for some time and Ikavalu is going well..
Kennedy has to get through 2 days of hard work early this week - Fitz from presser.
Toby - "should be right"
Dale - "should be right and do you want to tell him if he's not?" to journo
They really have to play Kennedy. I think we need him for our attack and bomb defusing, much as I like Miller.I reckon they gamble on Week 1 for Kennedy, could have potentially seen him playing if it was up North. Be a massive win for him if they get the week off.
Let’s just do inverse….
-3 Nicho although made a critical tackle
-2 Brailey …. No words
-1 Wade, did he play?
