Injuries and suspensions

[Kevinward777]

Channel nein reported that Buhrer could be out for a week with a knee injury. Richie will be gone, Brett will probably be gone.....we might have a somewhat inexperienced line up next week.

 

[Berkeley_Eagle]

Richie 6+ weeks
matai 1 week
Snake 0 - 1 week

 

[Pepi]

King injured apparently?

 

[The Eagle Has Landed]

As long as Symonds plays 80min we'll be alright

 

[Sheikheagle]

I think u r spot on BE

 

[Chip and Chase]

With Joe gone and Richie out for a few weeks we need King. What was his issue ?? If we don't have those three do we have the prop depth ?? Big George might get a gig, but we need a meter eater. Choc could go into prop rotation as we have plenty of back row depth to cover him.

Are any of the young props looking likely ??

I dont know Gower is pretty handy

Richie will have a pretty long rest. But in his defence, Inglis looks to get to ground face down and he contributes to being tipped over. I'd say 6-8.

Snake will get 2 at least. Elbows are pretty indefensible. The only thing in his favour is it was glancing.

Steve should have no case to answer to but we all know that won't happen. The point of impact is nowhere near the head. Hell, it's mid chest. My guess is 4-6

Matai's tackle was as clean as they come. Burgess deserves a week for his dive.

Absolute gem of a hit

Agreed. If they go after him (which I think they will) they dont want Manly near the finals this year.

shoulder - same one he had off season surgey on.

 

[Chip and Chase]

Hopefully it's not too serious then, we need his experience against Rorters and Scum

Ligi Sao may get a run? More likely gower or rose.

Kingy is past it I fear. Injuries and off the pace.

If true, then I dont know why they are letting Kite go.

 

[joeboy]

Kingy would be less on the cap? 10 year service and local junior.

Kits is better than king, but the above, I dare say, would be the reason.

Good question. King spends more time off field than on. Would think Kite gives us better value.

 

[KaZa]

If Brett and Matai are out.. id like to see Hiku and Gutherson get a run.

Gutherson looked good in the centres.. although id like to see him at full back..Hiku on the wing and Tafua in the centres.

Ligi Sao in instead of George Rose. Need to blood the youth now that its early in the season.

 

[susan]

Gutherson is a real talent but he is an absolute kid.No way he would be up to it physically.Imagine him in that smash up derby last night!His time will come.

Same age brett was when he debut. Older than hopoate. Hes bigger than brett was back then. Yesterdays game he fended a monster prop off. Hes strong and ready
