    What the hell would that mean?

    I think they are referring to Bad Boys 3, but it's confusing because that is not released until next year?

    this is standard procedure, is it not?

    I was thinking that too, they have the standard HIA protocols throughout the week.
    Doesn't mention his neck, just concussion so hopefully he's ok.

    The injury that Graham got before going off for his HIA appeared to be a shoulder injury

    So unless he got a subsequent knock that wasn't really captured on the footage, I can't see how a concussion test would be hard to pass (other than jokes about Graham failing concussion tests at the best of times)

    Probably any of those listed 18-21. Collins has been hovering around the edge of the roosters side for a while now though, but personally I know nothing about him. He is a tall bastard though. Played off the bench in the residents game on rep weekend.

    You're trying to guess what will happen 3-6 weeks in the future. Anything could happen to make a player more or less useful.

    Just take a punt based on your best instinct and go from there.

    I'm half expecting Gallen and Surgess to pick up mysterious injuries today as well, just to truly screw over everyone's bye planning.

    I've been tossing up who to trade between Kaufusi and Brown, for Semi via DPP. I'm gonna take a punt, but I've totally overlooked CHN. Would anyone trade CHN before those two? Thinking maybe hold Brown and kaufusi and try and strengthen my round 13 numbers.

    the benefit of going fifi to graham is that the sharks play the dogs same game.

    drawback of brown to graham. eels play tonight so you have to take a punt.
