Rhys

[Con Gorozidis]

Should we/could we/would we roll the dice and rush him back?

I know he is a guy who needs to regain touch and timing and takes a few games to warm up - but I just honestly cant see us beating the cats with Wilkes, Ben, Kosi as our 3 talls.

[plugger66]

Less than one game in 12 weeks suggests no but we may not have a choice. I wouldnt do it but who knows.

[dragit]

Did he train today?

Did he train today?

Not sure about today, but he was training at full pace last week.

I would normally be against the idea, but hey, it really is the last roll of the dice, if his hamstring went again and he missed the last 2 it would barely matter at this stage. The only concern is that if he does it early in the match we are compromised for the rest of the game, we can't afford that against the Cats…

[Con Gorozidis]

well latest news is Roo might play - so we may not need to take such a risk after all....

[Junction Oval]

It would be nice to have him in, but the problem is that "dicky hammies" can go at any time - the first 5 minutes.
It would be a real role of the dice. What would i do - if he is training flat out and feels ok within himself, I would take the chance and play him. If any doubts (90% ok), I would not play him.

Did you learn nothing from the game against North? What's the point of rushing him back if he pings it again and misses the rest of the season?

the whole 'rest of the season'
we lose this week its season over.

anyways looks like roo will play - so this thread is null and void.

Why are you saying Roo will play? Where did you hear that?

You would think he is no hope. Con does go early.

Also heard on SEN Rooey will do all the rehab to play Friday night. Doubt it, we always tell fibs about our selections and do last minute changes but who knows?

[BackFromUSA]

Rhys said Saturday he was 100% ready to go next week in the 1s or 2s. Hammy already been given extra time to ensure no further breakdown. The cause has been found and ongoing work being done to combat the problem. Hopefully this will solve future hammy issues.

Issue is, if Roo plays at 80% fitness, is he at risk of a full ACL injury?

Rhys still listed as 1 week in injury report

The injury list has always been a load of horseshit.

You really know your s*** !!

[ralphsmith]

Ahhahahaa hamill still on the injury list!

Rhys has to play. Roll that damned dice. His speed is unstoppable.
Take a risk, if the string of ham snaps again so be it. Just take a risk.

[SaintPav]

It would be a big risk in season defining game. Lyon brought back Stevie Baker for a Grand Final after a similar absence. Roo also came straight back I remember. Completely different player and circumstances though.

What about as a sub?
