The Club does a lot of things right, but the lack of news on injuries is appalling. I just watched the latest so-called "injury Report " with Frank P on the website. Great news that Slade is fit again , but not a word about Marika, Young, Richie , Jeremy Hawkins or Tony T., let alone how Will is tracking. I appreciate sometimes they need to be cagey with selections, but some indication ( apart from Craig's general comment re Young and Marike) would be appreciated .
I agree. The way the nrl allow teams and coaches deal with injurie reports is amateurish these days. I don't mind if they are selective in what they allow out to the public but fans deserve better.
The secretness behind Slater's injury this year really pissed me off.

I hold out hope every day that this is a possibility and the club is just being coy. It doesn't look likely though... He was still in a sling at the end of April and has only just started very light physio. 16 weeks until the end of the season regular. Highly unlikely I would think.bula wrote:All reports say Billy is no chance for this season but does anyone know if he's a shot for the back end?

Good to see a much more detailed injury report by Frank P on the website this week. All bar Billy discussed in detail. Pleasing that it seems Young T will be back after the bye, but Nicholls and Hawkins ( neither of whom can take a trick) still a month away.

There are certain grubs out there who will deliberately target Billy and his shoulder when he comes back. If it's not absolutely spot on it will sooner or later fail again.
We must all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately
Just watched the footage and I'd be shocked if it was anything more than an ankle sprain. He just slipped during a drill. Might be wrong but really didn't look like much.
Update: Apparently his ankle has swollen up quite badly.
Hopefully at worse it is a minor sprain and if he misses any games than only 1 -2. Really sick of the injury curse on our players.

To be honest i couldn't give a toss about what it would mean to the QLD in regards to a reshuffle side if he's out injured. All i care about is him being fit for us.LESStar58 wrote:And if he really is out I would say it's as simple as Thurston to halfback and Michael Morgan elevated to tve starting side.
