Galloway ruled out

[Discussion_Bot]

Wests Tigers Prop Keith Galloway has been ruled out of Sunday’s round 12 clash against St George-Illawarra Dragons at WIN Jubilee Oval.

Galloway suffered concussion in the win over Penrith at Campbelltown Stadium last Saturday night and has not fully recovered.

Head Coach Tim Sheens will name a starting replacement prior to kick-off.

Not great news.

But concussion is not something you take a risk with

I bet nobody drops out and Ryan remains on the bench.

Yep

Brings back memories of a must win game against the storm in 2008, Galloway gets ruled out and sheens brought in Stuart Flanagan. Absolute genius.

One thing which will improve will be our mobility with no Keefy No doubt Woods will start now .A bit more mobiltiy in the forwards may help Tigers move Dragons around a bit more and tire their guys who played Origin out .

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

I'll bet Fifita starts and he'll run himself ragged early on in the piece and we'll get next to zero value out of him in attack.

Don't get me wrong I enjoy the fact he is defending much better this year, but this isn't doing our go forward any favours.

This is why he wont get picked for NSW he is seen as to soft to miss a game just from being knocked out

I won't be surprised if Matt Groat or Neil Begovich gets a call up to the bench now. Galloway is a big loss though, the Tigers will miss his go forward.

Thats the thing though Golden if they don't pass the new concussion tests I don't think they are allowed to play

I hope it's Begovich to start and A. Fifita off the bench 20 mins in for impact in the go forward :slight_smile:

Correct. There is a medical test the doctors put players through and if they don't come up trumps, they don't play.

Golden, NSW picked Jason King, who is just about the softest prop in the comp.

Galloway doesn't get picked because he plays for us and we don't get players picked in Origin.
