My favourite one is Ikavalu failed to finish the game with HIA when he came back on and finished the game

Also 23 mentions of could throughout the article, seems pretty sure of the mail

pretty sure if i was told last Wednesday to watch all the games in the round, read the NRL.com casualty ward article afterwards and then spit out an injury report, i would've accidentally looked like i was plagiarizing that, complete with the internal dialogue - "fuck, thursday was forever ago, what happened in that one?... wait, i think i remember Ikavalu going off?... did he come back on?... I'm just gonna guess he didn't"

Says Twal is expected to return... When his own coach in post match said nobody would be back this week..

Definitely hold trades like you say, but if ever a line up was sweating on TLT it's yours.  Hopefully goes your way.

Yep after reading that Wackos shit I think I’m fucked

Wacko probably still thinks Fogarty is going to lose his spot to Tyrone Roberts

Their mail is usually terrible before TLT and highly clickbait (e.g scare for Bateman owners when it's a charge from MRC that didn't warrant suspension, ooh so scary). I wouldn't be surprised either way with CS9, and there were mentions from Storm saying he would have played last week if it was a final

Man that Wacko article is garbage.

FWIW nrl.com casualty ward article says JMoz and JWH will play, BMoz likely, Crichton unlikely, Tupou no chance andand Cordners concussion issues still being managed.

Can’t be arsed trying to collate the rest

Havent been on much this weekend, 943 for the round with 16 drops me 12 ranks to 31 but holy moly what happened to Robson minutes.

I don't ever remember Wacko throwing up mail on a Monday. Could be just me, but generally a Thursday morning. Strange.

Well done mate on the rank. No one seems to know if Robson was dragged or got injured. He didn't look injured though when he was sitting on the bench. J. Paulo when he had his back spasms didn't look like he was injured sitting on the bench but he was so I won't be assuming re Robson.

I've always wondered why wacko leaves words out of every sentence, whether its on purpose to get through the article quicker or if thats how he really talks.

I think I have worked out who is whispering to Wacko.
That article is just entirely based on return dates from the NRL casualty ward. How does this peanut still have a job?

He wrote it in 2.5 seconds and we’re talking about it. Easy cheap journalism.

Not good, sure, but cheap.

In fairness to Wacko, his Thursday wrap up is generally a solid conglomeration of what everyone else is reporting in splinters. If treated as such-that is, only being a summary of everything reported elsewhere-then I find it quite a convenient 5 minute read.

This whole Monday mail is something different though.

Am cautious of trading in broncos players during this whole soap opera.

Holy Moley starting Manly 2RF for rest of season would allow me 2 great trades and keep Angus. It's not happening is it

Who?

I was listening to the game on the way to a mate's place and it didn't sound like Robson had a good game.

What about Siro and Thompson? I think both are expected back no?

Club physio says both are a good chance of playing
