3 trades left so probably won't be trading this week. Is there anything new on arrow's knee injury?

Great summary. This is why I love this place. Always someone who thinks more than you.
I guess Farah and Arrow out is a risk. As an non arrow owner, Id be happy to see Arrow rested. Although, him playing injured is pretty beneficial to those who don't own him as well.
Ponga back will be interesting. From what Ive seen maybe 1/3 of the team sold him?? A decent score from him might shake things up a little.
The rest im not to fussed about.

You reckon Matterson is locked in to start for the rest of the season? Who was originally named at lock for them this week? Is Radley ahead of Matto in terms of backrowers?
Isaac Liu was originally at lock, apparently he was rested.

I think Jordan Maclean and Matt Scott will be a MASSIVE in for the Cowboys this week. Full strength pack will help them out immensely. Wouldn't be surprised to see them go on a big winning streak to finish out the year.

Bobble Head's diagnosis will be interesting, played the game out but see how is leg feels once it has cooled down.
Radley's looked close to splitting open as well. Looked like one massive tag mark straight down his Tibialis Anterior.
Nothing on NRL Physio about either so probably all gone.

Farah *should* be good to go, just has to get through usual HIA protocol. Of course, there's the low % chance of having ongoing symptoms eg Matterson.

To be fair there are some real speedsters in the top sevens sides.

Yeah mate. The USA team has Carlin Isles who once ran a 10.24 100m (ranked him in the top 50 sprinters in the US from memory). The dude is ridiculously quick over 20 meters.

Thanks R&T. Getting beaten for speed by a 7's player isn't an embarrassment.Rippin and Tearin wrote:

Wow. Dudes got some footwork to go with that speed as well.

Surely Farah wouldn't be that much of a weak c**t?

I'm more of a Baker fan. Almost as fast and has more of a broad sevens skillset.
Neither of them are amazing players but blistering pace. Lot of good players in the Eagles team these days.

All good. I wasn't trying to knock him actually, rather pointing out he may have lost a bit of his speed.
Actually what Radradra has done is pretty remarkable and it seems to have gone under the radar a bit. Everyone went way overboard when Hayne was trying out for the Fijian 7s side. Unlike Hayne Radradra has actually legitimately made the side and has looked pretty good.
Fiji were favourites but got knocked out in the semis by NZ (who went on to win).
An NRL club or two would do well to chuck a bit of money at Joe Ravouvou - most impressive player at the tournament IMO!

Yup, Carlin Isles isn't actually very good, just fast. Perry Baker was player of the year last year. Im not sure I agree with the award, but he is certainly very good.
