If Turbos's Dont Back Up We Wont Have 17 Next Week
- Thread starter bob dylan
- Start date
And we will get relief from NRL for that. The reality is all the blokes injured except Dylan are second rowers and all of similar ability, none are irreplaceable, especially the way we use our backrowers.Doesn’t make much difference.Over the injury stuff totally as it’s misleading.
Except for Dylan our KEY PLAYERS play EVERY WEEK basically .. and we lose most weeks against bottom eight sides, many of whom have injury issues too. Make of that what you will.

Who cares. When we play with 17 men, 12 don't bother to show up any way. Only missing 2 would be a huge improvement. I can hear Trent now. WE WILL BE BETTER FOR IT He reckons.
Barrett rarely uses 17 players anyway.
So what will be the casualty ward next week
Frog
Tangles (maybe he is a chance given Zorba's #nextweek call a few weeks ago ??)
Siro
Paseka
Jetski (broken arm)
Phantom (eye socket)
Hastings (persona non grata)
Lane (HIA ?)
Even if Tommy and Jake don't back up we'll have numbers - it won't be a great side but we can field 17, so not sure why Tuberculosis thinks we can't.

Taufua might be out with HIA as well but you're right. Considering that we have 9 players out and then including Lussick and Myles in our top 30, we should still have 19 players to pick from. Might be tough picking 21 but we do have 17.
It does highlight what a s##t season we've had with injuries. People are baying for some of our players to be dropped but we don't have much of a choice with the players available.
Worst case if Horhay doesn't make it through HIA

20 and 21 just two randoms who are injured or on HIA watch

I guess that means a few on here who type "I could play better than...." better start 'aving a stretch!

Slim picking isn't it.
20 and 21 will be the Turbros so that they can play if ok.
I'm not actually sure if Jono Wright is fit either to be honest - I seem to recall reading he got injured a few weeks back.
So in an absolute worst case scenario we may only have 18 fit players to choose from - what odds that Cletus still doesn't make the cut ??

LOL - do we get a special leave pass for the Great Hass to play NRL. If Shady and Jurbo don't pull up then we'll be a backrower short and the NRL might entertain us
Lets wait and see . I am sure we will make the numbers and there is a good chance the concussion boys will come to their senses and the Turbos will back up .
Adversity brings out who we all really are
Adversity brings out what coaches and players are made of
Who are we ? Adversity always lets us all know .

I agree
Isn't it supposed to be team and club and the fans first , then the players last , when it comes to team selections. Not what the coach or a couple of players want.

I'm not so sure it cost us the win, but we were certainly down on pouted lips and dropped heads. That said, the other boys playing did a reasonable job making up for it with directionless couldn't give a f*ck attitude. 🙂
