If Grant does back up, it'd prob only be 30 min

Not a good thing for a HOK to have a sternum injury, he's a wait and see, wouldn't recommend anyone to jump on

Fonua Blake time. Grant will probably play decent minutes. It's a game they'll want to win against the chooks and he'll only play half a game tomorrow night.

I wouldn't be buying him this week though, I've already got him.

Aka sitting on ur hand for 5 minutes until it is numb, then whacking away, called 'The stranger'. Erm...., apparently.

I had a look at this last night thinking about bringing In AFB but historically scores about 5 points lower when Harris is out over the past three seasons.

No interest in trading in a Warriors player with that last round bye, by which point I'll probably have 6 red dots and no trades.

Yeah, this

Assuming last round carnage, can anyone really afford to knowingly get a guaranteed out for that round?

Hope TLT might bring some more cashout options

Should be able to get a decent gun trading out King and Carty. Hoping for a good cash out.

NRL Physio confirming on Insta.

The chin will be named to play later.

10-12% risk of re-injury in first two weeks back

Am going to Reds vs Wales Friday night, hope Suncorp give the seats a deep clean after origin.

While there’s a lull before teamlists, I need to vent cuz why the fuck not, to preface I’m not about to blame injuries or origin for the Broncos downfall this season, cuz facts are facts and there’s more than a handful of key players that have regressed this year and our 2024 signings have been garbage at best, but I keep seeing ‘injuries are no excuse, look at the Panthers without Cleary or the Storm without Munster’ and that seriously misrepresents what the Broncos injury issues are, other than that those two players, both of those teams have had relatively consistent teamlists, it’s hard for the Broncos to ‘next man up’ when the next man up is also injured, have the Panthers or Storm had to name a squad on Tuesday short 2-3 players of the full squad because that was all the healthy players they could select from and then end that week having to play 2 hookers and a centre on the bench because those were the best players available to them?

correct, injuries are no excuse for bad team management.

Not trying to be facetious, but the casualty ward shows 5 out for the broncos. Are there more out than that?

If not there's plenty of empty ones to choose from.

The Storm have had that for most of the season, with our next man up (Pezet) having done his ACL. Wishart has done an admirable job but he's the 3rd string 5/8.

Haven’t looked at the casualty ward to know what it says, but if we had more than 20 players available to use last week, we would have named them in the initial 22-man squad instead of leaving the last 2 spots blank.
