NRL Round 1 - Knights Vs Cowboys - 1:15pm Sunday 1st March (AEDT) - Allegiant Stadium, Las Vegas

Are their any front rowers in the lower grade that's ready to step up and do a better job off the bench?

Croker probably the best forward

Jsaf by the length of the straight.

Mooney is an weird one, I kept a close eye on him as I wasn't impressed during pre-season. He doesn't run the ball very hard coming off the line but every once in a while (generally when we have a roll on or in an attacking area) he rips off a big run.

It is very confusing with Fletch, he's still kitted up even after halftime, boots n all.

Back on the sideline too

 

[HarVeeGee13]

We have both hopes for some kids but they are just that, kids.

I’d just rather Ponga and Brown combining on the left where they both play better and have better weapons to work with. It’s our biggest strength may as well double down on it

Reckon it's a kicking thing for brown on the right

What a horrible call love it and no challenge

Jacob was amazing. Mooney’s rep is as a second stint specialist and he was pretty good in that first stint overall so that’s promising.

 

[Grandpa Joe]

Take the 2!

 

[jamesgould]

I'd have been inclined to take the two there, just to get our nose back in front and help us relax.

 

[slotmachine]

Needed to kick for Dom there

 

[danknights]

Dylan has to go to the left and Sandon right. It's looks **** already.

 

[Grandpa Joe]

Not hating Dom’s kick returns

 

[mullenmagic]

Great vision from Sandon

 

[jamesgould]

That's a glorious try! 2023 styles!!!

 

[slotmachine]

One for the Smith truthers.

And Bradman has sent the cards and chips flying to score that one.

 

[Grandpa Joe]

Nooooocastle!!!!!!!!

 

[Celticman98]

Braddy!

 

[Seano]

I think we just passed our points total for 2025...

Normally nrlphysio is accurate but where is he getting that from without a scan?

Guessing like the rest of us I think.

Physio can generally feel a full rupture of ACL or PCL with the drawer test. They can also usually illicit a response if it’s meniscus with that twisting and rolling test. They can also generally get a feel for lateral and medial ligaments.

The fact they gave him the all good to return to play, means there wasn’t any obvious laxity, which is positive.

I guess the fear is that there’s a “partial” or “sprain” there somewhere, and while it may feel structurally sound, it is more susceptible to a full ruptured.

As somebody who partially (85%) did their ACL, they probably want to see if it’s rehab or surgery.

BUT FOR THE LOVE OF JOEY, GIVE THE BOY SOME ICE!!

Good **** Sandon
