Tom Trbojevic destined to be one of the greats

[eaglebuzz]

Not according to Buzz in 360 last night who by his calculations has Tom 3pts behind Cody Walker. My god he’s a fool!

Cody Walker was 7 points behind Tommy when the count went dark and wasn't even the highest ranked Rabbitoh when that happened. Seems very unlikely but not impossible. Walker would have to have picked up the 3 points just about every single game they've played to be in front of Turbo.

Do Origin games count for Dally M points?

Pretty silly if they don't...

They both started in the same year so SOO should have been included. Maybe it was because the Daily Mirror was a Sydney paper. It should be changed, you can't get any better than the best players in the 3 toughest games of the year.

I'm ok with him getting the week off. I think we'll be able to account for the Raiders without him. Last time we played them we were missing DCE, Tom, Jake and Schuster. And even then the thing that got them over the line was a ton of possession.

Tommy named in the side as #1 so might not be injured after all

So what's Bullsh$t Ritchie got to say about that ?

 

[SeaEagle21]

The Physio confirmed no injury but are monitoring the swelling. I'm sure they know what they are doing but Tom being Tom just wants to keep playing....what a legend

Yeah I'm still not convinced he will play

 

[The better Robbo]

Nope, one of many flaws in the Dally M system.

Seems stupid. You are forced to miss a week but can't collect points in origin. Tom could well get Dally M having missed 1/3 of the season.

Come 5pm Friday we will know the answer.

When Tom was pulled previously he was named at 1. I am not expecting him to play, but I hope he does.

Why don't you expect him to play? If he has no injury he plays .. Fullstop

Because I don't 100% believe he doesn't have a significant injury... but I agree if no significant injury, he plays of course.

Ritchie still vehemently saying Tom is out this arvo on FB!

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Straight from the Turbo's mouth.

Odd how some people still doubt the word of Tom "I slipped in the shower" Turbo, lol.

Who cares he's just another hack from News Ltd.

 

[MightyEagles]

The markets certainly have him playing

 

[Nordburg]

So if reports are true (depends which report )
If Tommy injury is not as bad as first thought, Does Des risk Tommy if not 100% ?
Top 4 is important and Manly should go for it
A win against Canberra will go a long way to making the Top 4
I believe they can beat Canberra without Tommy
If he is not 100% he shouldn’t play

It’ll depend on whether there’s a chance of re injury,which is only likely if he cops another high shot.But top 4 is still reliant on Roosters losing

I think the Funa and Cust selections say a bit

He's playing ……. unless of course he doesn't.

He said on the news last night there's no fracture just a little bruising and swelling and that he's keen to play

 

[Damien2812]

If Turbo is keen to play and it's only bruising and swelling he should play. What's the worst that can happen if Turbo plays sore?
