Starford To’a #253

[yeti]

Yep, can't see him playing again this year.

 

[Vicious]

The fact we extended now suspect we rejigged cash into this season so probably offset anyway.

I doubt his form over the last 2mths has created a price jump for him and he fielded a chunk of offers from teams.

No other club would want him, not even Perth Bears.
Charlie Staines is a better centre.

 

[Zach]

This poor kid needed a break and has been playing injured for like the last 6 weeks.

Been managed poorly by the coaching staff/he needed to know when his body needs to recover.

😆

I don't know about that...

If Makasini breaks out though, Star moves to first choice back up.

What a load of dogshit . Every player in the nrl would have an injury that most people would need a few weeks off work . Getting needles and low contact through the weeks , hypo chambers , ice baths etc.
the reality is he’s made of glass and needs to work on strengthening the muscles around his joints to try to alleviate the never ending issues he seems to have .

yea ok - he's certainly not going to be able to do that playing every week though is he.

all good saying he needs to do it this and that - but its been pretty obvious his shoulder/arms been fubar for a while.

and the fact its constantly being re-injured to the point he cant play suggests its not a simple frikin hypochamber and needle that can fix it.

again - Club and him have made stupid calls.

 

[innsaneink]

I think he has a shoulder injury looking at when he came off , and ice pack up high at front, end his season and get him fit , AD to stay at 7 rest of year and start next year at 7 , Latu is a long way off , needs time

Yeah he came.over to our side at full time...the big coat on with ice on the L shoulder i think

 

[weststigers]

He was trying to avoid surgery and needling clearly. AC joints aren't nice injuries...when they go, it feels like a spike of nerve pain every time you go into even soft contact. Most of you have no clue...uppercuts all round

Should have just gone and got it sorted because his form dropped off a cliff.

My god. Have a lie down and when you wake up go and watch the replays of when Staines played centre earlier in the season.

??? He does it in the off season like every other player … the season is for maintaining .
you’ve NFI mate! The club has one of the most conservative strength and conditioning in the nrl. Peter Moussa nearly always errs on the side of caution.
And his injury was an elbow . An elbow isn’t a precursor for an AC joint injury . Stop talking shit …

 

[Moh]

Yep, can't see him playing again this year.

Hope not.

Clearly been needing a rest.

Enter Makasini. Preseason will decide our backline from there.

Seriously hope we did this.
For ages I have been wanting us to use our dud years to front load for future years. We can't dig ourselves out of the salary cap hole the way we are going.

It’s Nice to have Dr Mengele on board for some expert advice

You've got such a lovely way with words mate really productive way of debating a topic

You’re not debating anything . You’re accusing the club and player of malpractice . I’ll debate something that warrants it . Not some guy who come on to bag the club , and a really really good high performance team .
Who I at times thinks , sometimes should push the boundaries .

That's what the off season is for

Naden for next week.

 

[Telltails]

Seems content to be a FGer from where I sit. The pattern of one /two great games a season and reasons/excuses for the rest is a reoccurring discussion. Not an ability issue.
