Tom Trbojevic destined to be one of the greats

[Tragic Eagle]

You know what I am satisfied. Beating the Sqeels was awesome. I hope Turbo is okay and if not that he recovers soon.

No $1700 fine, no justice.

If Tom is out for 3 weeks then Sivo should receive a suspension for at least the the same amount of time if not longer

****in corrupt incompetant NRL again

What is to stop other teams smacking Tom every game and putting him out of action?

That’s footy. Remember JT.
Every fker on the planet tried to smash him out of the game.

 

[Andyvb88]

I think Tom would be able to play this Friday. But Des should give him a week off then use the dogs and cowboys as a tuning for the finals

 

[tookey]

I’d imagine it’s the kind of injury you could play through if absolutely necessary. It doesn’t affect his game.

Just wear special headgear

Happened before

I’ll leave it to the medical people…
We should be able to win the next couple without him.
may not make top 4 though. Raiders worry me.

Agree it’s a must win for the Raiders, Whighton looks to be finding some form also.

Get Sipley back next week which will help against that pack, conflicting news with Turbo, I am thinking he will play, Turbo will want to play.

Every fker tried to smash that stupid grin off his face you mean.

I agree also tom will want to play but don’t risk him.I’m just happy it wasn’t a long term injury.

I can tell from your bold statement man.

Have him come back for the Cowboys game to lock up our top 4 spot and get some extra dally m points and ride the momentum to the finals. I'm nervous about him losing dally m even tho I think that system is flawed. He deserves it so much though, literally head and shoulders above the rest of the players in the comp. Walker and Cleary would be his main threat. Although Tom did have a strong lead on Walker before dally m points went undercover, and even though walker has played nearly every game since, he must've had points stolen off by Trell, Murray, cookie and reyno. Will be a close finish, but hope our boy gets it.

 

[Remy]

I would like Walker at fullback. Pretty much been playing like a second fullback in attack with this 14 role and has been doing it well. Keep our edge combinations as it is, no need to disrupt for one or two players being out. Just do a tit for tat change.

'Not serious'

Manly prepare for Turbo's time in the garage

A recurrence of a cheekbone injury for Tom Trbojevic is likely to mean the star fullback is not risked in coming weeks, but a previous facial fracture appears to have spared Manly a devastating finals blow.

I would like Walker at fullback.

Couldn't help myself.

 

[eaglebuzz]

the main difference when the Raiders beat us last time was no DCE.

And no ball for most of the match. The possession statistics were some of the most one sided I have ever seen. We didn't get the bounce of the ball all night.

 

[globaleagle]

Yes a Clydesdale has hit Thoroughbred , disgusting that a Z grader has taken out a 24 carrot superstar illegally

Yes... but I'm absolutely certain that Sivo will be severely punished as the nrl are cracking down on all of this illegal behaviour.

Wait... only a monetary fine under two grand???

carry on.

~sigh~

 

[globaleagle]

72nd minute the incident happened. Just watched it again on replay how sivo only got a fine for that is laughable. It was so late and after the tackle had been completed.

Agreed. I mean (I didn't think it was super late) but Sivo had to bend his knees and swung his clenched fist/arm into tom's head.

How that only got a $$ slap is beyond me. - (I mean it's not beyond me because there's a loss of faith in the system) but it still is ridiculous.

Yes for sure he can. Just like this one. He can then dine out on the Raiders!

 

[globaleagle]

I've noticed many reports that it was lucky the impact was on a previously inserted metal plate.

So Sivo smacks someone so hard in the face that serious injury is only avoided by Tom sporting some titanium armour and...

and

.... it's a monetary fine.

The NRL are punishing Parra by allowing Sivo to play!
