lima lima lima duck gutsy performance from Cooper tonight. Fully expect us to target him a bit better than Souths tonight though.

Isn't that the same injury Gallen had? If so, I wouldn't be so sure that Coops will be playing.

He doesn't look too happy at the moment.

Is it worse than we think or is he dreading the reception he'll get next week if he plays?

>:D

I actually hope he does play. If it's as serious as it looks then they'll go in with a huge disadvantage with their main playmaker well under done and clearly nowhere near fully fit

Whoa..... Didn't Fittler and Johns shut down the Friend tackle conversation quick smart?

Johns and Fittler even tried to suggest that Inglis ducked his head which caused the tackle to end up like that? Seriously?

Johns even paused talking when they replayed the tackle because it's worse than even he thought it was.

I just shake my head at the hypocrisy. Yesterday, they were crowing that Slater had committed an illegal tackle. Umm correct me if I'm wrong, but is that not an illegal tackle? Yet, all I can hear is crickets!

I definitely noticed it on the Fox telecast. Barely a mention of it. Post game Buderus and co were asked the question and the group suggested he would be fine, maybe pending carry over points.

It was in stark contrast to last night.

The media running the game, as per usual.

McKinnon ducked his head too. Didn't make a difference.

So I notice Gallen the grub has come out basically saying, "Slater should be suspended because we lost".

Nothing would make me happier for the eye-gouging, stitch clawing, ball-twisting, racist drug cheat than to see him have to watch Slater play on Sunday.

Like I yelled out at him on Friday night, “Get back under your rock, Gallen!”
