I’d just love for us to play our full side even if it’s just once.

It's funny all the heated debates we had over preseason about who's in our best 22. Bit of a waste of energy in hindsight. History has shown if you are near enough to our best 27 you will play most weeks.

 

[jj1978]

Wonder with Cerra, may just be a case of a bit of tendonitis from his past few occurences or just he had a touch of awareness and got overly cautious. You never know, scan might come up clear.

 

[Blue_Fusion]

Get the feeling club will take a very conservative approach with Cerra...

Even if it is very minor, I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't play until after the Port game.

 

[Rustica]

The game changed when he went off on Thursday night

 

[BigFrizz36]

The game changed when he went off on Thursday night

I thought that he was average (at best) 1st week back but looked in tip top shape last week till injured. He's a really good footballer that you notice more when he's not there.

Yes you could be right.

Cez may himself be quite cautious about his hammies given he has missed some games over the last 2 seasons.

I’m optimistic that he will rule himself out if there is any doubt that he is not 100% even if the scans are positive.

Better to be safe than sorry.

I’m trying to remember if the initial injury last year was more back related than hamstring or am I confusing him with Gov?

I did seem that way, and he was playing well. There was less run towards the end and I noticed Kennedy was really battling in the 4th too. I think Crippa doing less centre bounce work meant more fell to Kennedy.

I don’t think Hewett is a great sub because he has a good engine and can play out the game but doesn’t have much burst which I think is important for the sub.

It did, Pitto off for a while didn't help either

Cerra being part of the rotations allowed us to play Kennedy on Petracca everywhere he went. When Cerra went off, we needed Kennedy back in the middle

I doubt whether we see him till after the bye.

He will be back before the bye

 

[RPCB]

He will be back before the bye

Yeah. Friday night.

 

[Arr0w]

Yeah. Friday night.

Unlikely, think he will be back for the Port

 

[RPCB]

Unlikely, think he will be back for the Port

I guess it would all depend on how bad his injury is. Port is 21 days from the Melbourne game.

OMG. I can't wait for
Cerra
Saad

[carlton_99]

Can we have some sort of decent luck please. This is terrible

 

[Jatz]

Something is terribly wrong with our training loads.

These aren’t impact injuries. And there’s too many of them to be coincidental.

Yeap - this is the real cause of our injuries ….not Russell

 

[Mondyboy]

The only good news is some clarification in Saad, Motts and Fog. We could get all three back next week.

Otherwise: AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH
