Parker and Saab out injured

[MadMarcus]

it

maybe it's like a partially pregnant girlfriend?

(or the ligament is intact and the join to the bone on the end is damaged, or something)

If the end of the bone is damaged it’s unlikely the girlfriend would get pregnant

I love this backline, only worry is Walkers knee. Unfortunately we all know Harper is back in this week...

Please no

Freddy interviewed Walker a few weeks back in the sheds and Walker said something about not having the body to be a centre anymore lol

I think Walker is too valuable in that role he is performing in the middle of the park, especially with Schuster back to work with as well, seem to recall a few times they combined well last year

I can’t trust Walkers legs anymore either, we must have a strapper employed just to service him, and it’s hard to cover a centre injury when they go down

I agree with you ,as much as I would like too see Walker in the 4

 

[Stevo]

If Walker plays centre, Gordon Chan Kum Tong could be a smokey for an exemption and being named at 14 given the injuries, suspension and no fault stand down...

I wouldnt think so. We still have enough players to make a 21 dont we? And can we include

Mate his legs must be alright to pass a health test for a new club next year

I think Des will bring Morgan back for his redemption day. Good luck to guy and hope he smashes them in the centres. We all have bad days at the office!! This will be his opportunity to obliterate most of those memories with a great performance. What odds on MOM???

Garrick back to wing.....Tommy to FB......Tippytoes and Tolu left side. The bench is the interesting one for mine. One spot left there after Walker, Ben T and Marty. I would love to see Des promote young Tuitavake. Adds energy and power plus in our middles. We need it. Cmon Desmond!!!

Unfortunately in the case of Harper it's been more than one bad day, his confidence has been down for a long time and two weeks isn't going to be anywhere near enough time to regain it, we can't afford a liability like him on our right edge I'd prefer to see one of the young kids blooded, I'd have more confidence in them than Harper

Remember the crescendo of the resurrection of t-Rex a couple of years back? A week of media frenzy, then he didn’t make the 17. Classic Des.

Really? They are literally more common than a full tear.

I honestly have no idea medical wise with these things. If it is a regular tear why are they waiting a month? And why not say he is out for the season upfront.

 

[PONTIAN SEA EAGLE]

surely with Turbo coming back, we stick with Koula and Tuipulotu

Agree here but even harper if selected surely couldn’t have another bad game especially against the tigers.

I'd love to see young Gordon given a run

More the fact he always seems to have something going on with them ever since his badly broken leg. That gutsy win we had against the Raiders in 2019 he did his ankle, filling in at fullback last year tore his hammy, numerous little knee issues, just always seems to be something going on with him every game in that area

Can’t believe I’m saying it because I spent so long pissed off that we picked Parker over him

And the Warriors will take any Aussie that’s prepared to move to Auckland haha

I’d almost bet that Brad Parker will be a LOT longer than 4 weeks too.

Bet it’s closer to 4 months and could even be 9

 

[eagleron]

Got nothing to do with this thread but is Gutho moonlighting as a real estate agent these days?

So it is a pregnancy then?

Good chance it could happen ER, also Des has many options now, all brought on by our no1 curse, injuries !!. At play, 1 wing and 1 centre spot, contenders: Harper, Burbo, Jorge and Las Vegas, Des could also tinker around positional changes as well. Plenty for Des to ponder.

Re brads knee

They are going to roll the dice they can stabilise the knee and avoid surgery - if not he gets a recon regardless and misses the year. As someone who has done my knees a number of times it shows how tough Parker is to even have played on

Also I do not think there is much chance of Walker to the centres if he did not even play there last week

Especially with Lawton out

I fear Leilua making a b line to Harper everytime he has the ball.
