Reece Walsh Category 1 concussion - definitely will not back up this week. Round 15 vs Souths falls within 11 days as well, than Origin/bye. Might be forced to boost to sell. Will need to boost someone out o get 17 on the paddock.
But now he has been reported as having passed his HIA, which seems bizarre. He can't come back tonight but not sure what that means for coming games. I would assume the Broncos would.lilely err on the side of caution this weekend regardless, but we will see.

Bloke was out cold on the field but passed his HIA? Super weird that. Broncos might actually play him this weekend since he only played 5mins. Will have to see the results of the Suaalii judiciary, might be a sneaky TrellMit at centre for game 2 if he has a long suspension.

It was a disgraceful hit, the NRL needs to be better with protecting their players. The second time this season Walsh has been taken out with an illegal hit. Suaalli should be suspended for five plus weeks.

Proud of the boys, played well considering we were down to 12 players for the whole game. Scoreline doesn’t do us justice and show how close the game actually was till the 70th minute. Gotta work on our missed tackles, really hurt us there. All in all, very excited for game 2 in Melbourne, will be a cracker.

The guy leant back and slipped just as Suaalii was tackling him. It was very unfortunate and suaalii paid the price

I'd say he will be suspended for that length.

Update: He is facing 4-5 weeks. That will take in Origin two.

Think I’ve reversed my train of thought on selling Hynes. Didn’t look good at all for NSW last night.

Potentially considering holding through to 16 now to see whether Moses replaces him in game 2.

Need to find another way to Fifita - might be Armstrong being sacrificed pending teams. Melbourne / Penrith into a bye coming off a 24.

If you do sell Hynes, he only plays 1 game between now and round 17. Yes you'll want him for 17 onwards if he misses game 2, but its really only round 15 you miss if you sell.

Short to 17 this week and Trying to bring in fifita however need to downgrade someone. What can I do? Need to do both trades



Also in the consideration of AFB (which is more affordable) ?

It's an interesting thought. He seemed to be like a season keeper until origin. I'm on the same boat. I'd like to sell but I don't want to have to kill my team to bring him back

I'm also running relatively short on trades so I don't want a situation where I trade out Hynes, he gets dropped for Origin 2/3 and then I need him for round 19 when he's suddenly playing vs the Tigers.

I can bring in Fifita by going Robson > Hands or Cotter > Pahuli and Armstrong > Fifita via Salmon.

I'll have to make a call on Saturday, likely before we know whether Armstrong loses his Fullback spot to Sharpe. At least the Cowboys play Saturday so hopefully know who backs up in the 24H update. Current expectation is for Robson to back-up and Cotter to sit (60 minutes Origin, partner apparently giving birth in next week)
