Seems a very strange call to me, given that Stimson will probably only play 10 minutes off the bench

Maybe he has been carrying injuries? There have been a few weeks recently where he has looked injured but played on.

Brandon Smith has had a sore ankle for a while now, but has been playing through the pain due to Storm's injuries/Origin period.

I'm sure they are now just resting up his ankle and that he will be ready to go again in 2-3 weeks, fit and firing for finals.

I’m very disappointed Brandon isn’t there, however if it is legit an injury with him back in the 17 in the coming week/s, you cannot do much.

If he is fit and left out, we riot.

See this is the type of thing that should be covered in the injury report, why are we having to find out like this?
