Have they really put a line through Edrick for the season?

Shame for Edrick thought he in career best form for the Knights.
Hope its a smooth recover for him.
Any news when Connor will be back? Could he be back this week? I really feel our attack has lost alot of rhythm since he been injured in round 3.
 
Barry Toohey article stating we are likely to lose Glasby to medical retirement based on the impacts of concussion....

That is going to be a real loss for us this season and I think next as well(I would have liked 1 more year of him with the Knights). Expectation is the medical reports have been passed on to the NRL and, with the continuing acknowledgement of concussion's long term effects, it seems pretty clear he won't be playing league again.

Toohey seemed to reflect that would free up around $450K for another signing next year.

He has been one of those solid, dependable quality first grade players for us...I hope he recovers fully and this doesn't have any long term effects on the quality of his life in the years to come
 
“There’s five season-ending ones, but there’s two more that we could get back."
“We’ll get Daniel back at some stage and fingers crossed, if we’re in finals we’ll get Eddie back.”

That's from the coach. I had Brailey, Watson, McCullough, Glasby as season enders. Is he suggesting Sione is gone for year as well?

Doesn't sound good for Best either.
 
Looks like Best, Lee and Sione might all be back just before the finals.
If we can make the finals, those will be some handy inclusions.
If Brailey could find a miracle cure, that would give us a shot I think.
 
Edrick missed the rest of the season when he did his arm last year, isn’t it the same arm this time around?
