Teddy's ankle

[monkey]

I think you will find lulia back in the centres and Simona to fullback

So he's out for 6 weeks.

The most likely scenario is teddy to fullback and lulia to centre. Rowe hasn't shown much at all this season. Been very quiet, no getting involved much. Moses would be a very remote chance, but although he has a WT contract I don't think they'll risk him physically yet.

Would Nofo switch to centre? To allow one of our stronger nsw cup wingers a chance? Mr T has like 29 tries in his last 18 matches and has been a match winner for NSW cup for some time now. His workrate has improved and he came up with that one on one strip in the last minute to give us a shot at winning the nsw cup match against warriors last week. He's a better player than Semi Radrarara but Parra have a weaker squad so he's got a chance sooner than Mr T.

Or would Asipeli Fine get a shot at centre? Very solid player. Similar to Lulia. but faster and stronger.

maybe they don't want to play Nofo at fullback so teams like the roosters and bulldogs can't see his full potential before he resigns with the tigers …

 

[Sabre]

Poor form that we let him stay on the field. If it's that bad he should have come straight off.

Assume they didnt know hence the need for scans. It happens. If you cant handle things like this I suggest you go support lawn bowls etc.

The rep bye round is between Round 8 and Round 9 so gives Teddy an extra week :wink:

 

[BlackandGoldForever]

well a bye is in between so that mesn he will miss at least 5 games…. it could be worse he will also miss playing for City though that game means nothing it's a good thing hes not in that game

Source? speculation?

Didn't Simona cover at full back on the weekend?

Makes the simplest solution.

Simona FB.
Lulia to centre.

Anasta to be suspended…. Austin in at 6.

Wests Tigers fullback James Tedesco is facing a stint on the sidelines after suffering an ankle injury against Manly on Sunday. Copyright: Robb Cox/NRL Photos

Wests Tigers medical staff have today confirmed that fullback James Tedesco will be sidelined with an ankle injury sustained in the 34-18 victory over Manly Warringah at Leichhardt Oval.

Tedesco will have further scans on his ankle tomorrow morning and could potentially be sidelined for an extended period.

While it is clear that Tedesco will miss this Saturday’s clash against the Cowboys, an exact return date will not be known until Club medical staff receive the results of tomorrow’s scans.

One of the Club’s standout performers in the opening five rounds, Tedesco left the field in the 49th minute of the Manly clash.

Wests Tigers will provide a further update on Tedesco’s ankle injury tomorrow.

So, at this stage it's only this weekend.

Who filled in for him when he was off? Simona or Nofo? whoever filled in I imagine would be the one with the job this weekend.

 

[Black_n_White]

Simona

 

[innsaneink]

I thought Nofo went to the back when teddy went off

 

[Black_n_White]

At first so did I, but both as Matai tries were scored Nofa was out there, and we were well out of shape

 

[alexaki]

Just reported on Fox Sports Tedesco going in for surgery on the ankle tomorrow.

Best case scenario 4-6 weeks
Worst Case scenario 9 weeks

Not fair!

I thought Nofo went to the back when teddy went off

He did , but when Simona got the hit to the shoulder they switched , guessing trying to protect Simona

 

[Irvine]

He had the mri last night. Its 6 weeks lads. Sorry to be bearer of bad news.

Not good news but you must have some pretty good inside info…..........you were the first to call it.

 

[Tigerdave]

He has to have further scans today according to the Tigers press release. So far, he's only out for this weekend or is the official release a load of crap?

 

[happy_tiger]

6 weeks

How in the hell did you know this even before Teddy did himself ??
