Who am I missing?

[Yak]

Well in this week's team announcement Smith said 13 were unavailable. I'd imagine at least Jono Ford and Ethan Lowe (not sure if he's back yet) would be on that list. Also, supposedly Lou Goodwin was close to cracking first grade and now he's gone home to Albury. Not that these guys would have been training with the NRL squad but I believe both Isaac Lui and Alofa Alofa, two of our best early season performers, are both unavailable for 20's due to injury.

Plus, I'd hope he would not come into first grade consideration anyway, but where has Phil Graham gone??

Pez to fullback Graham onto the wing

Don't tempt fate Rooster_6 - all we need in that team is a half and a 5/8. We certainly don't want to fill those positions this weekend....

[Guest]

Yeah Graham is showing on most websites as pec- indefinite so he can go onto the wing.

Also add in there-

Anasta Heart- Lifetime.

Not like Brian smith to make excuses.

The only real first graders that are missed is Perrett and Aubusson, who were way out of form.
Marty Kennedy is probably the biigest casulaty and he is a rookie.

If you go through most clubs at this time of year you will find a lot of injuries

IMO Linnett is a very important part of our team. We need some speed in the team to at least partially make up for the slowest wingers in the comp.

Last weekend we had another scoring opportunity ruined by BJ's inability to run past a very slow defender.

The Roosters appear to have the most players on the injured list of any club. We can debate about the quality of some of those players but one thing is certain, depth is being tested.

in that case i say put him on the wing!! Linnett's best attribute - his speed has hardly been demonstrated apart from one or two opportunities

So again i wonder, how the fark does Smith justify BJ's placement on the wing?
BJ named in the backrow, lock or off the bench i agree with but not on the wing.

[Horry]

D Conn goes in for a neck operation tomorrow but his season is over. Fark...
S Naughton goes in for operation tommorow as well.
M Kennedy got some good news today as they feared his stuation was worse then first thought. No due date back.
Sammy back fingers crossed for Melb
Maubs and Linnett may now be gone for the season. Just waiting to see how things pan out in the next week.
