Aaron Woods out 8 weeks with hamstring injury

[Freakzilla]

Most likely to miss all Origin.

 

[Papa Emeritus]

He was on NRL 360 tonight and he said he is a chance for Origin 1 (doubtful of playing prior though so probably would not be selected) but a better chance for 2.

However he was being quite cagey and could just not want to admit he will probably miss all of Origin.

It's a hamstring injury so it could be 4 weeks it could 8 and tbh it could be 10 weeks, it depends on how his body reacts to the injury.

 

[JackDog]

Yeah thanks for the wishbone tackle. No punishment of course. So on top of allowing elbows to the head, the NRL seems happy with wishbone tackles too.

But don't dare touch the precious little darling refs

Lol What's the chances of two players out of 272 ,getting the exact same injury in the exact same round,both were club juniors and both have signed in the last week to swap clubs for next year ?
Bloody strange stuff

Freakish to be honest.

I was looking for a mathematical answer

I was looking for a mathematical answer

2/272 = 0.0277777777777778

2.78%

 

[Wolfmother]

2/272 = 0.0277777777777778

2.78%

So 1 in 36 chances??? I thought it would be less odds

Well you multiple the 2 players chances (0.0277777777777778) by 100 to get the percentage. Adding injuries though complicates things as there are countless injuries players can get, so it will be far less than that.

NSW might be a better chance now. Might pick a better prop.

Need to account for myriad possible injuries in your model and then account for their prior probabilities; suggest Bayesian or Maximum Likelihood Estimation

NSW aren't exactly short of forwards so it shouldn't be a huge loss for the Blues.

 

[Mitch Connor]

Perfect opportunity for him to be overtaken in the selections now and we pay bulk money for a former rep prop

Vaughn and J.Trobojvich (I'm hopeless with spelling) could do just the same!

NSW will still have Pearce & Farah in the side.

Surely they can't be serious picking a bench hooker for Souths!

Where is the girl in the yellow dress?

The only time NSW won a series lately Pearce was banned due to the nightclub incident lol

 

[jasonsmith1994]

instead of faking injuries they could have just let woods and reynolds swap mid season,though the bulldogs really dont need more forwards just controllable fans, know what i mean

 

[steeliz]

Better this year than next year. Hope he has the rest of the year off and we get him well rested
