Here is the Latest NRL Injured or Unavailable Update:
(Updated: Tuesday, 17 August 2021)

A fractured cheekbone that once almost cost Tom Trbojevic an Australian Test jersey has apparently saved him from suffering a similar injury as Manly gear up for a finals assault.

Trbojevic copped a knock to his cheekbone as he spearheaded an astonishing 56-10 thrashing of Parramatta on Saturday, and has reported swelling and bruising from the injury afterward.

Whether Trbojevic is available for Friday's clash with Canberra will be determined during the week but initial signs appear that he's unlikely to suit up.

Teammate Brad Parker is also expected to be ruled out of Friday night's clash against the Raiders following a nasty head knock after being floored by Ryan Matterson.

[Dion Johnson]

Need the senior players to stand up and have good games.

Wighton looked like he found some touch last week, hopefully it was a one off.

Will be a good test for the middle forwards.

 

[40 years an eagle]

Please don't put Walker on before Lawton again unless we are well ahead.

 

[mickqld]

Raiders forwards will repeat the pounding they gave us last time. No Tommy , no cohesion. Attack will be headless chook plays and defense will be disjointed with no communication. Raiders by 12.

 

[Waz13]

Please don't put Walker on before Lawton again unless we are well ahead.

Walker to be the key tonight v the Raiders. Got a feeling he’s in for a big game. Need our pack to stand up tonight. If we match them it will be a good win. The Monster to have a big game in the left edge too.

 

[The Wheel]

No excuses tonight - smash the lime splices

 

[The Bandit]

Watch our no.9 tonight, he will dismantle them like clockwork.

 

[Fibro Eagle]

Foran will again step up tonight
And get the team going forward
No Tommy is a Loss but will only keep the winning margin down
If Funa catches the first bomb Manly will be in for a good night
GO MANLY
