News Round 22 vs Dolphins

[AlzzBulldog]

I can’t believe Thompson is still out lol

 

[Brendan7]

He actually can make them changes now though. Most of our injured players are back.
He really hasn’t had much of a choice especially with a chunk of our top 30 injured

He could have made the changes a month ago, don't tell me there aren't alternatives to Knockonbour and Perham for starters. Try something, it may not work but try!

22 weeks for an ankle injury isn't quite right, he honestly should of been back weeks ago

Nah he had a Lisfranc injury. Athletes in other sports I follow regularly take a full year off to recover. When he did it I was surprised they thought he could come back this year

Yeah agreed i know a couple of people who have done the same, was about a year to they were back to normal.

I think Kitione Kautoga is a better prospect than Topine or Morrin.
And Pele needs more playing time as a prop.

Where has Kauyoga been, not played anywhere for weeks!

 

[MOVE.80]

Where has Kauyoga been, not played anywhere for weeks!

Either injured, suspended or struggling to adapt to defensive structures.

Suspended I think. Him and pele seem to get suspended a fair bit

this injury similar to rfm few years ago?

 

[DogsOfWar1704]

Seen a SuperCoach article about up to 50% of the squad is dropped.
Dare say it will most likely be
Alamoti, Wilson or Skelton, Hughes, flanno, perham Morrin edwards maybe rfm

 

[boggie23]

Shame we just don't have any other forwards and they just have to play lol.

Still see some upside to Edwards but not that confident we can develop him at the development club. Hope so tho

Hopefully Patolo will be ready this weekend. And Hughes deserves a bench spot even for 25 mins. Also I know tanner had a shocker last start. But I’d throw him in before Okunbor or Edwards because Atleast he carts the ball up, something we haven’t done since Vaughan left.

 

[cookieman909]

Apparently Mahoney has a bulging disc issue. That’s why he was benched on Sunday. Wonder if he’ll play this week?

 

[Interestingg]

Pretty sure RFM just had fractures in the bone. Thompson ruptured the ligament as well as a few fractures. And also RFMs first surgery failed so I think he needed another. Clearly we’ve been blessed with durable forwards lol

 

[DogsOfWar1704]

5 minutes until tlt. Fingers crossed hahah

[bradyk]

Knight will probably be a late inclusion going off Gus' comments.

 

[Livin Tevita Loca]

Much better side, would have liked to see Skelton retain his spot in the side.

 

[fiordog]

Knight to come in for Waddell as a late change surely

 

[B-Train]

Skelton doesn't deserve to get dropped. He should be ahead of Wilson..
