Yes, I thought the same.

It was after a StK player took hos legs out and he grabbed at his lower leg. When I saw him looking distressed (looked like he was crying into his top) I thought he’d done his knee.

Maybe he was just exhausted and wiping the sweat of his face. He seems to play out the game OK.

We can’t lose him. One of best players.

Has he done a string? Only a few weeks after coming back from a quad?

For memory he was in and out of the Port side somewhat because of injury.

The recycled crop of 2023 is starting to look very thin.

Hamstring was iced after the game awaiting test results

With about 3.50 sec to go he dives to a lay a tackle, which looks like the incident his hammy goes and I would assume it is a bad one based on that action

Hey look, he’s injured again

Good player who is injury prone. Basically sums up about 6 guys on our list

Honestly, we just have too many guys who are not durable at all.

Heppell to take his spot and YOU WILL LIKE IT!

I only pray that cox goes back to the wing and Brad debuts Hayes in defence.

We need Cox back this week with Sun’s forward line. Hayes come in straight swap for you know who…

If Scott reverts to type, yep he will bring him back. Another plodder and suspect user of the ball, just what we need… :man_facepalming:

Yep. Parish, Ridley, Guelfi, Reid, Duursma, Draper from our best team routinely get injured often multiple times a year for significant stretches.

Let alone Hunter, Wanganeen and Baldwin.

The two success stories (to date, I stress) this year have been Jones and Cox finally staying on the park.

There’s still time.

Yep. Hence “to date, I stress”.

would prefer hind.

we’ll have gone from playing cox (200cm) and jones (196am) on the wings to Roberts(184cm) and hind (180cm)

Rogers? :thinking:

Obvious typo, Roberts.

My brain is still asleep

He’s one of our most important so would suck if we lose him for some time… anyway was surprised that he didn’t take the shot (probably would have converted) in Q4 but quickly saw the option and delivered well - shame Lang dropped the sitter

Apparently not an ice pack taped to his leg. It was masking tape attaching his leg to his hip.
