From the 'NRL Casualty Ward - All the Latest Injury News' web page, Here is the Latest NRL Injured or Unavailable Update:

(Updated: Tuesday, 05 April 2022)

NRL Casualty Ward: Double ACL blows stun Cowboys

A horror week for the Cowboys with back-rower Heilum Luki and outside back Tom Chester both set to miss the 2025 season after training mishaps.

www.nrl.com

Manly superstar Tom Trbojevic will be sidelined for at least a month after scans confirmed he suffered medial ligament damage in Saturday's win over the Raiders. Trbojevic will undergo knee surgery this week with a hopeful return period of four weeks.

The Sea Eagles will travel to Newcastle on Sunday for a clash against the Knights with Brad Parker (COVID-19) and Dylan Walker (knee) also in doubt.

Manly Sea Eagles

• Josh Schuster (Ankle, Round 6)
• Tom Trbojevic (Knee, Round 9)
• Brad Parker (COVID protocols, TBC)

However, from the NRL Casualty Ward, Manly hub page, there are slight variations to the information regarding the unavailable or injured players and their return periods:

First!

sheesh, get it together guys and pull yer finger out!

And that saying is apparently related to the old days of firing cannons.

Anyway... go Manly! 2.50am start time here so I wont be up with you champs (soft).

Hope tom is ok. I would like to see Koula in there somewhere tbh.

Koula to be the first centre picked!

 

[Will on the hill]

Koula to be the first centre picked!

I'm hoping to see Koula named at centre (partly for Manly, partly for SuperCoach), but Parker comes back in and Harper may have done enough to earn a stay of execution. Won't be surprised either way.

If only we could just play Turbo vs Ponga 1v1.

If Parker was diagnosed with Covid just prior to the last game (can anyone confirm?), then he'd have to do his 7 days and still be out given its a Thu game this week.

 

[pt73]

Just got email from club, Tommy Turbo out for 4 weeks with a medial injury.

 

[davohan123]

Yes turbo gone medial injury 4 wee

 

[davohan123]

Gone for 4 weeks turbo posted this elsewhere but relevant also here.

With knights titans sharks and then south's

I think if we can win 1/3 and have a fresh turbo back for south's game I can cop that.

Not going to be easy could be very easy 0/4 over the next month. This is really going to test us

This period and origin will decide our season I think. I know it's being captain obvious but we lose a big chunk of games in both these periods without turbo I just don't see us getting enough wins to make the 8.

Big 4 weeks coming up

 

[Shoe1]

Weekes to fullback. If Parker is back possibly koula to fullback, but I think weekes has more creativity, so it depends what Des is after.

If walker is out then a fullback with a passing and kicking game would be better than a speedster.

Also manly needs to understand that Best is a terrible slide defender, with very little lateral movement. Don’t run straight into him though.

 

[KaZa]

Koula to full back..his natural position. Can't wait to see him there. If Parker still out..and Walker is fit.. Dylan to centre.

 

[Rocky]

Got a feeling Garrick fullback as Des will want someone who has played there in first grade. Dont shoot the messenger!

 

[Class of 96]

Anyway... go Manly! 2.50am start time here so I wont be up with you champs (soft).

That is soft Moose. Have an early kip and haul ya ass outta bed.

 

[ALinda]

One thing's for sure, Team List Tuesday will be very interesting...

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Aloiai's form last week was very encouraging. I thought it was his best game for Manly and we need him to step it up from here on.
If he does then it could make the difference and spur the likes of Paseka and Keppie on to the heights they've only shown glimpses of so far.
In this game we'll need a dominant pack, clever halves and plenty of speed out wide.
Go Manly, you can do this!

[Eagle thru 'n' thru]

The Knights are without Klemmer, Mitch "elbows" Barnett, Lachlan Fitzgibbon and Tyson Frizell. Thats practically all their forward pack. The mighty Manly Sea Eagles should bashed (legally of course) the forwards and DCE and Foz will take care of the restt.

The Knights are without Klemmer, Daniel Saifita, Mitch "elbows" Barnett, Lachlan Fitzgibbon and Tyson Frizell. Thats practically all their forward pack. The mighty Manly Sea Eagles should bashed (legally of course) the forwards and DCE and Foz will take care of the restt.

Saifiti played last week and Frizell is not confirmed to be out , has hamstring issue.

 

[Tragic Eagle]

Garrick at fullback is a proven mistake. He is at hone on the wing:

 

[skeagle]

1.koula
2.saab
3.parker (if iso is over)
4.harper
5.garrick
6.foz
7.dce
8.aloiai
9.croker
10.marty
11.shmole
12.davey
13.jurbo
14.lawton(if dwalkz is out)
15.bully
16.keppie
17.paseka

idk also weekes could be potential 14 and then rest of bench lawton, paseka, keppie although i really liked bullemor in the first weeks

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Garrick at fullback is a proven mistake. He is at hone on the wing:

Oh yeah I think this was the last time we picked him at fullback, 2 points from Silvertails in the MVP, 7 goals and a brilliant try.
So maybe a proven mistake or maybe you're thinking of some other game?

Garrick scoops up a kick and goes the length

Reuben Garrick picks up a Tom Dearden kick, gets into the backfield and goes all the way
