How badly ? Hopefully just a precaution ?

Bellamy mentioned it in his presser
"We had a mishap this morning there with Will Warbrick, so we're not quite sure how bad it is, but we'll just we'll check him in the morning and go from there."

If he is out long term, maybe shift Meaney to wing and Paps to the 1? Or do we just slot Reimis there? At least we can cover the wing, shame though Will has been fantastic this season let’s hope it’s only minor.

What’s the plus side to winning this game? Losing ensures we can stay in camp at Brisbane, play a team we have a great record against at a ground we never lose at, or win and finish in the same position but have to travel to Penrith and play a team who has embarrassed us twice in the last few weeks?
We should treat this as a glorified training run and do everything possible to avoid winning the game. I know it’s not in the spirit of the game or whatever but who cares, lose at all costs.
We're pretty much guaranteed to face Penrith sometime between next week and the grand final if we're going to win the premiership, may as well be while we have a second chance and they're missing luai.
Agree.

What’s the point in faking an injury by the club? Anderson was in the reserves all they had to do was name him on the wing at the 24 hour squad update and say Warbrick is being rested, not sure why CB would need to lie about it, one to keep an eye on anyway.

They probably didn't want to 100% take the piss but then they saw the broncs side named and thought "lima lima lima duck it, Brick and Katoa out too"

Yeah possibly, I’m all for it we shouldn’t be risking anyone that’s going to be in the side next week with the exception of King and Papenhuyzen for obvious reasons, fingers crossed it’s not an injury for Brick!

Confirmed Katoa, Russell -Smith and Warbrick out. I wonder what the chances of Fa'alogo to the wing and Geyer to the bench as back up hooker are...

I’m all for this, I saw Chan and Anderson are currently in the run on side for Brick & Eli but I would give those spots to Fa’alogo and Howarth for sure!

I would be quite happy for Cole Geyer to get a debut. Imagine if we had out first two father and son players in the one game.

I'm so looking forward to this game. Maybe it's the fact that I don't care if they lose
