And 7 red dots this week, brutal round.

Good to see you back on the horse.

Thought we were down our second big poster for the year already.

34* I think, as the sin bin was also a penalty conceded

I'm on the same line of thought mate... Simpkin to a cheapy centre to make a wee bit of cash or something,..

Bugger it back to Olam in. Surely the man is scoring plenty of tries over the next month or so

Starling hooker

Hodgson middle/lock. Came on for a HIA though I believe so may not have been planned

You talking a finals match later in the year?

That too! Quickly forgot they pumped them by 50

Yeah true. May might have better value over the bye period though. I didn't want to get back on any Tigers players, but a 0 minute 5/8 is a much safer feeling than a 30 minute bench utility.

Found the source of the tweet. From nrlsctalk

Ryan Papenhuyzen apparently hasn’t even started concussion protocols as of Tuesday, meaning Hynes has secured another 80 minutes in the #1 jersey. The Storm play Thursday night in Round 12 against Brisbane, meaning there’s every chance Papenhuyzen could miss that game as well.

even if he wasn't going to play as a precaution, this just seems extremely unlikely to me?

"with all the care and scrutiny around concussions, lets just, err, not bother for while".

Agree but Madge is bonkers, that teams one thumping away from being torn up again

He's based that on absolutely nothing I reckon.

If only he was a credible source, that would lock in Hynes.

Funny how back in R7 he was a tricky pick due to “Papy might only miss one week” and now theres a chance he plays 7-8 games in a row. 

I wish Craig Bellamy played NRLF

Althou there is this:

@nrlphysio
Frank Ponissi has said that Ryan Papenhuyzen is out this week, and “more than likely” next week after suffering a concussion in Round 10. Is doing well now after reportedly suffering symptoms in the days after the game, but Storm want to err on the side of caution with him

i thought the concussion protocols were for a return to play? that read to me that he's still suffering concussion symptoms so he hasn't entered into the steps required to return yet.

Yeah that doesn’t make sense

Exactly.  Makes me sway towards May.  I might go and eat some hay, I just may, what do you say?

Ok here we go

“More than likely” enough for me to rides the Hynes

I reckon this makes Papy less likely for origin and more likely playing rd 13, right?

Welcome beans

Thing is, if he knows he's a shot for Origin, he'll be busting to play round 12 to claim his case. Not his decision though I guess.

A bit old but still good - just popped up on the social feed again.

Oh shit I didn't even realize how close I was to the monthly might go for it only 115 points behind first place

Not sure if this is old news or not, but ....

Melbourne is set to bring in Cooper Johns in a shake-up to their halves for their clash with the Raiders.
