Logan has a foot injury.

Fair enough. They just said he was omitted, didnt give a reason

[HOORAY PUNT]

Lets hope F Evans comes in for Nielsen. Evans has had some time off but he should come in for him.

INTO 23: James Boyd - Paul Thomas - Andrew Hayes - Matthew Westhoff

Four very handy INS there.

I don't think Boyd or Hayes will play yet. Next week, with Callinan.

[bulldogproud2]

I think Hayesy may be a chance but Thommo may need another week off.
Cheers

If they're fit I think they come back in right away. Habel, Haydon and Musolino for mine haven't done enough to hold their spots.

Will be interesting to see how the bigs work. Matt Westhoff surely will play, but whether he rucks, plays forward or down back could be interesting. We might even have Hardy swapping around a bit during the game. But it's vital Hannath holds his own while he's rucking. If he doesn't, it could spell distaster.

Would be concerned if Hayes and Boyd came straight back into the league side.
Surely they need a run in the reserves.....is this a sign of how many injuries we have plus the 2 suspensions when we have no option to rush them straight back in under done?

[phantom57]

Sturt at $6.50 .......yes please !

[CENTURION]

yep, maybe an upset on the cards here........and that's a big maybe. We will win.

Yes they are underdone but the objective is to win the flag and while it would be nice to win this game we need our quality players match fit by October. This would not be a panic move but a long term strategy to win another flag.

Hayesy tore the groin from the bone only 6 weeks ago, can't see how He can be 100% yet. Anyhow, We will soon find out, I guess!

I'd heard that the muscle tore piece of bone out, which would be a shorter rehab, just a broken bone to repair.
