Dan Ginnane is the worst. The bloke needs to work out if he is yelling or talking, preferably not half way through a sentence.

He is the daily telegraph of commentary.

You missed the point of the post

Currently 460/11c with Cotter, Fine, Fog, Talagi, Rapana & Lussick to come.

If they average 40 I get to 700.

Hopefully that isn’t too bad a score this week..

That neck injury he got last season turned out to be season ending for 2023 and 2024

Hoping to return 2025, but was also suggestions of medical retirement

That is quite sad, he showed a lot of promise.

I read Dan Ginanne and my fingers started reflecting my anger. I was blinded

White Lightning wrote:i just saw a list of all the possible suspensions, injuries, failed his's, etc for just round 5 - reynolds, mariner, tedesco, walker, taaffe, edwards, young, bird, ilias, mitchell, garrick, henry, s. fainu, bateman, flegler, farnsworth, king, mann, tracey...and there's still 2 games left

luckily i've dodged all of these in fantasy but do have henry (r) in sc & vsdt

With so many out, again, do the powers that be alter (or add) trades? I don’t have any of the above in Fantasy (but still have 8 to play today so ) but Salmon might score a 40 now. I am filthy with losing King in SC though -he has been Haas like at about half the price.

Dolphins injury update.
“Herbie does not need surgery so that is a real positive,” said Dolphins’ Head of Performance, Jeremy Hickmans.

“He is going to need at least four weeks to repair the injury, and with this type of injury that can be potentially longer depending on how he responds to the treatment.”

Flegler suffered a shoulder knock, but is a chance to play if he can get through training this week.

Felise Kaufusi has not been ruled out but is at long odds to play against the Broncos after suffering a hamstring strain.

The strain is thought to be low grade, giving him an outside chance of being fit for Friday.

“Felise’s chances of playing will depend largely on how he goes with his rehabilitation this week,” said Hickmans.

Interested to see if Keeley gets a run. He won't be worth the trade, but he's got good wraps on him.

In SC Young (-14) is my VC! I’ve never been so nervous before a Cowboys game -Drinky has to take the field so the warm up terrifies me! No cyclones, earthquakes predicted for Townsville is there?

Simpkin and Kepaoa too.

Even if The dragons play shit again, they’ll still probably beat us with so many outs! At the start of the season we knew our depth was going to be tested, but wasn’t expecting it in Rd 6.

I don't see why they would give us extra trades. Everyone is playing under the same conditions. Is there any precedent that they gift extra trades when there are lots of injuries? I hope they don't.

Yeah they did give some extras out a few years ago. Was late in the season from memory and a lot of people were running out from a big flurry of injuries.

Was a fair bit of backlash though, so maybe that would put them off. I can see why they did it though - to keep people engaged.

I was referring more to allow an early 3rd trade.
