Thursday Night Late Mail & Chat – Round 6

12 Comments Stilesy 389 Views

This post contains all your Thursday night chat and mail needs. The remainder of the late mail will be posted later tonight/tomorrow morning and the banner will be revealed Friday evening!

RAIDERS V COWBOYS, 7:50PM

RAIDERS: Matt Frawley dropped off the extended bench 24 hours out, which gives stability to Tom Starling’s role as the starting hooker. Hudson Young is still on the extended bench in an attempt to return from injury. His potential inclusion would likely push Elliott Whitehead back to lock and Ryan Sutton out of the side. Albert Hopoate, Jarrod Croker, Trey Mooney and Peter Hola were the other players cut on Wednesday evening. UPDATE: 1-17; Kris 18th man

COWBOYS: Reuben Cotter was a game day callup to the starting side last round. It could happen again depending on whether they want to ease Coen Hess back in on his return from a shoulder injury and play him from the bench with Taumalolo at prop and Cotter at lock. Riley Price, Daejarn Asi, Ben Condon, Ben Hampton and Tomas Chester were the first players cut. Update: Cotter prop, Luki edge, McLean/Gilbert bench; Hampton 18th man

Anyone worried about trading Nannai to Jones tonight with the news around about Brodie ?

I’m in the same boat. Barry Toohey said he hasn’t heard about Jones being out (at this stage at least) so that’s enough for me.

Jones is a plodder

Just now via nrl physio
Jai Arrow in some doubt due to facial wound suffered in Round 5, has been in hospital for much of the week (via SMH). Fair bit of swelling/redness earlier in the week so hope no infection, not excluded at 24 hour squad update so Rabbitohs hopeful he will be right

Thanks mate, I’ve got that news in the rest of the mail. Promising he survived the first team cut but have to think he’s a game time call.

Haven’t seen him mentioned all week but surely he’s in doubt. He opted against surgery and wants to play on through the pain.

Is trading arrow to cotter sideways if it will allow me to get papali’i in a couple of weeks. Injury cloud over arrow/his fitness too

I’d hold Arrow with Souths’ upcoming draw – he could go for some attacking stats – but it may be a tough hold this week.
