Kalyn Ponga discussion

Very much looking ahead here, but is the Penrith game @ Mac Jones the game Ponga comes back?
Jeez that’d be unreal if we’re in form.

They said 6-8 weeks so the Penrith game would be best case scenario

Honestly I’d be having him take the full 8 weeks. The last thing you’d want is for him coming back a week early only to miss more games. Touch wood we win a few more games in the meantime and there won’t be the pressure to rush him back in

 

[nighttiime]

yep agree. Figure out when he's ready and then wait 2 more weeks.

Yeah I’m not a physio but my understanding is that hamstring stuff is right up there in terms of likelihood of re-aggravation or turning into something worse.

Brown should be sweet to come back in round 7 at the latest, so at the very worst we’ll roll into that game 3-3 with a spine of Fletcher Sharpe, Sandon Smith, Dylan Brown, Phoenix Crossland and maybe a bit of Harrison Graham. Which is still honestly really good. And I back us to pick up one of the next two at least with how we’ve been playing, so we may be doing even better than that.

There’s no reason to be desperate to rush Kalyn back if those other guys are fit.

Hope he can come back early.
