yeah, but similarly you can play with it if necessary. Clearly not something you’d want to do on the eve of a final but something they might be willing to do in an elim final when there’s nothing next week if you lose. Wouldn’t surprise me if he played with it if he was anything better than 70% fitness.
Raz on the other hand is a different kettle of fish. You can’t cover a dodgy or unhealed hammy. He’ll just rip it the first time he looks to really extend himself or burst away. Could find yourself a man down for 3.5qtrs.
Don’t know how to post photos…but I love that one on the club website at the moment of Hooker with his arm around Raz. Says a lot about the man. Hoping big time he can play.
