Confirmed by the club now. And yea if Brandon was healthy I'd be perfectly fine resting the captain for a few weeks. With Slade though....

Munster and suli were supposed to be out longer as well. Let's see if we keep getting lucky in the recovery department.

If he plays this week I'll be pretty salty. Sit him out.

I think Smith and Bill will miss two and one weeks respectively. Jordan "seven year old boy hamstrings" McLean is a mystery.

Harris would be real handy but that medial could see him out until late rounds/finals. Massive shame as I feel he brings so much to the team.

Now that Slater is officially missing a week due to the hit, Soliola surely cannot get off!

Pretty decent line-up. I'd probably prefer Hughes to FB and Munster in at 5/8 personally. Hopefully Jordan's child-like hamstrings get through the sessions and he takes Nicholls spot.

They're naming him?

Ffs you'd think they'd play it safe and smart.

Under 20s player, very versatile. Seen him play mainly back row but also been named on the wing.

Soliola - 5 weeks.
Deserved more, or sendoff and 5 weeks would be about right.

And, because it wouldn't be the NRL without a sense of melodrama, his first game back will be against...Melbourne in Round 26.

SO he misses five games and gets to play two full games against us?
Rightio.
I know that is not taken into consideration, but you wouldn't read about that.
