It`s good to see Oneill back and I`m happy to see Jesse get another run if he is named but I was really hoping that Sione Kite would get another start too

Kite hurt his shoulder a training last week.  Scans cleared him , he might play this weekend or next week.

Stanley has a torn ligament in his elbow and is out for the season.

Tolman has a rib cartilage problem, he is out for 2-3 weeks, they medical staff are going to do everything possible to get him back for the last game of the season.

Hmmm, I hope we have decent coverage for Chase next year, I think we'll need it.

Finch is doubtful due to bad cut on his hand sustained at the weekend, and his cover Widdop was injured last week during the NSW Cup game, repeat of corked leg that Blair gave him 3 weeks ago. So this opens the 5/8 spot wide open if both are out.

Rory or Luke are IMO the only replacements if possibly needed. Or Hinchcliffe, a very good utility, would like to see him get the 13 jersey next year though.

Its looking like Kelly is a likely fill in for Finch and Widdop.

Both Finch and Widdop are still injured, so as you said Kelly will be filling in, be interesting to see 2 dominant halves on the field at the same time, also kelly is used to playing the right edge like Cronk but will have to adapt to the left edge. Should still go alright though.

The late mail in today's telecrap says that Duffie is out for the season with a knee injury and Willie Isa will take his spot.

I suppose only time will tell, I hope your right because I would like to see Widdop at 6 before next year.

That's right, that's Duffe and Chase out for the season, will give Isa chance to step up, looked a little out of his depth in his last show though, hopefully he can redeem himself. Getting a little thin on the ground leading into season end.

Or will we see Sika at centre and Nielson on the wing?
