Talk about Souths have been backed in massively with rumours Benji will be rested after being knocked silly the past couple of games.
Benji out? To be rested?

Head gear is proven not to stop concussion. It's purely a massive placebo. The brain literally rattles inside your head and swells against the inside of your head. All the head gear does I'd stops head cuts

Would love to see Chisolm get a go if this is the case!

Yep.
If he was a boxer he wouldn't be allowed to fight the week after being concussed.

Ofcourse not because the objective for a fighter is to score points on cleans punches to the face…
Different in rugby league..
Obviously his health comes first, by the sounds of it we won't be winning for a while if this is true

If he were to be out, i would expect Moltzen to push up into the halves, Beau or Reddy to fullback and then put Ayshford back into centre. As much as i no alot of people on here hate having Moltz in the halves, we couldnt play Humble and Chisolm in the halves, way to much inexperience to try and control the team and run plays etc

Whats head gear going to do ?
Theres only two reasons for wearing head gear .1 is to cover over a cut .or two is because you are sponsored and getting a quid out of it . Talk to a sports doctor and he will tell you it will not stop a concussion.
Souths should run riot on us this week if the past month is any indication and even if Benji plays they will be short priced favorites .
I cant believe the Souths coach is starting Dave Taylor off the bench, that will at least make sure we are in it for 20 minutes .

Just a quick and plausible point if benji is out. Should we rest any other player with a niggle or player who is crucial to our season as we aren't realistically going to win without Robbie and benji and a forward pack as soft as marshmellow. Maybe give some young guys a go who have eighy minutes to rip and tear. Who cares if they get suspended. Just go in there like they are in the trenches at war and maim those rabbits.
