[theforceguy]

As far as what I can tell

Wykes - ACL
Longbottom Knee??
Harvey - Ankle ??
Stannard - Shoulder
Shepherd - Wrist
Maafu - Knee??

[benny]

Nala this week after he tears another "winger injury" for doing nothing. ?!?!

Turner - Knee
Fairbanks - Something !!
Rapana - Something !!
Stanley - Something !!
Tupou - Shoulder.

So out of 35 man squad we have " 24 men for selection"

Feel sorry for the 2 who's not picked.

Does this mean we can have Cottrell re-elevated to the full squad ?

Plus looking at the casualty ward, have we any1 who can "fill in" for the front row. ?? playing against possibly the toughest pack in the competition against the Stormers, it AINT going to be easy for who ever's coming in..

What about Whittaker?

[James]

I hadn't heard that Longbottom was injured, but if he is then our front row would be 1. Faulkner 3. Cowan 17. Manu. Cowan has played 3 before at least.

I think Fairbanks is back/neck.

With those injuries the backline will probably be:

9. Sheehan
10. Seymour
11. Mafi
12. Sidey
13. Cummins
14. Nagala
15. Dellit

20. Holmes
21. Godwin
22. Wara

Although I'd actually like to see Godwin start.

What about Whittaker?

No idea. He's just disappeared this season. Has anyone heard what the go is there? Is he injured? Or just not good enough at the moment?

Lol James - Nagala's where you go when you want to get your kid to sleep!

Hadn't heard that KL was injured either, but acc to Twitter he's just had an op and I'm guessing that wasn't elective.

I don't think the game we've played this year has enabled nalanga to play the game he was brought here for. If the panel has learnt anything from graham we might see him getting the ball in space on the front foot at speed a bit more. Maybe even coming in from the wing to go looking for it

[James]

The Force need to use Nagala a bit like Digby Ioane is used with the Wallabies. In the first three games it seemed like we weren't using Nagala as a runner off set pieces because that would be obvious and the defenders would be tuned in to it. Who cares, he will still take two defenders to comfortably bring him down.

[Man In Black]

We didn't use the flying Fijian because RG doesn't have the smarts

We dominated games with possession and field position and Nalanga was getting cold on the wing and holding his todger

[benny]

I'll also add now, looking thru twitter world, PEK COWAN is injured AND BEN WHITAKER has done his (knee or shoulder) and requires a recon, gone for the year, thats why Elvis T. has been upgraded from academy to full member till year end.

And Sam Wara is out injured (from the last game we played) not sure of an update.

[benny]

Our injury list has a better team than our currrent run on team.

[benny]

Here's our casualty ward.

Turner
Fairbanks
Rapana
Stanley
Tupou
Wara
Cowan
Wykes
Longbottom
Harvey
Stannard
Shepherd
Maafu

Hurray for the 30-man playing squad!

Hurray for the 30-man playing squad!

Smartest move ever by the ARU. Take 5 players away and give us an extra 800k in the salary cap...

[shasta]

Can't wait to see the ES media's take on that casualty list. I suppose they'll bleat about that as much as they did when the Reds were on the ropes?? Maybe Kafer will ease up on instructing the referees, just to help us out??

Force by 3.
