    I mean why wouldn't you!

    Back when I was a cub, I used to think I was wasted stuck on the wing when I was deep down a fullback just waiting for my big chance - and that was back when everyone probably got paid much the same regardless of position

    It sounds like Edwards quad strain is only minor. Hoping that he'll be good to go for game 2. With Teddy playing 16.

    "Yeo revealed the extent of Edwards’ injury was so minor he could’ve kept his complaint quiet and pushed through until Game One. But, Edwards opted to put New South Wales first and flag his injury".

    Minor quad strain is usually 1-2 weeks

    so many trade scenarios, but I'm leaning towards getting Koro, Uto, and Wighton, who should provide plenty of cover going forward.

    Hmm this is from Blues medico.. article published this morning..
    “He strained the lower part of his quad muscle, just where all the muscles merge into the quadriceps tendon, and the MRI showed the muscles weren’t damaged but there was a strain,” Blues doctor Nathan Gibbs told this masthead.

    “It’s an injury you can’t play well with four days later. It’s actually two to three weeks before you make a full recovery. Sometimes you can play inside that time, but the risk of re-injuring and making it a higher grade tear increases.

    “The Panthers play Sunday, which is eight days after the injury. It’s possible, but it would be high risk. Sunday week [against the Knights] is more likely, but again there is still that risk [of re-injury]. Ideally, he would be ready to play the next Origin game, which would be three-and-a-half weeks.”

    Incidental but Nathan Gibbs seems to have been NSW doctor for 40+ years, yet his position never comes under scrutiny in the media discussions on selections!

    Panthers might just give Edwards a couple extra weeks off though I suppose. Cleary already been an issue for them this year.

    Dr Nick in with a shot? He fixed Mika Sivo & Corey Oates up with feet for hands earlier in the season.

    You'll need a fair bit of cash, but they're all good purchases.
    Fifita probably the best captaincy option this week
