Turbo aside, they have had a blessed run with injuries. Most teams aside from the Panthers and Roosters don't have the depth to cover the loss of 5 starters.
Something about deckchairs and the titanic...
Ethan Roberts will play first grade before the end of the year. He was highly touted at the Roosters and has looked good since coming back from injury in the lower grades this year.
Melbourne have had two injuries all year but have been playing like busted ars*eholes. This is their level. It's just so typical that they would wait until they play us to turn it on.
