I don't know TBH, I just know that scans sometimes have to be left until the effected area has settled, whether that means BBBR has a major, no idea.

Rotator cuff injuries are tricky. Last year Rieko thought he had one, but amazingly recovered. Everyone's RC gets a bit shagged over time (by 60) if they live an active life, but it doesn't need to be 100% to play high level sport. Pat Rafter went years with a dodgy RC, electing to do daily rubber band exercises rather than get it repaired surgically (six months out).

Main thing with BBBR is that it is correctly assessed. If out till EOYT, fine so long as then 90%. Or surgery now, to be back for Super Rugby. But most definitely not rushed back quickly/too soon and reinjured requiring surgery which could have been avoided.

I tore a RC muscle a few years back ,

Still gives me problems now

No Quarter

@ACT-Crusader you get a like not only for your dad joke but the way you have persistently repeated the same dad joke over and over and over. Well played, your family must think you are an absolute riot.

Soooo happy to not see Harris in the team, but less than impressed that worlds best centre isn’t playing.

Predictable forward pack and a bit of rotation in the backs.

Should be more than adequate to put SA to the sword

ABs by 22-28

@gunner hopefully coltman can throw a line out. Goodhue was always going to be rested, they don't play young guys game after game anymore, unless they are wingers - which could be because winners hardly play proper stressful rugby, or they need to get the most games possible out of them as wingers have an early best before date, or both

I know they have protocols and will have access to good medical advice, but I'd of been tempted to give Crotty and Cane the rest of TRC off.

A little surprised SBW hasn't been slotted straight back in though, but Glad ALB gets a start.

Respectfully, this is classic Fern/Internet/Media naval gazing. I'm not having a pop at you - aimless speculation is what we're here for - but I'm OK with their call.

it's kind of: I know they have all the medical records and specialists giving us advice, but I think they are WRONG! It's a small step to THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU VACCINATE! WAKE UP SHEEPLE! YOUR GOVERNMENT IS LYING TO YOU!

He was sick on Tuesday and didn't train, I guess that is why
