That lingering TBC on Reid has me concerned - anyone else got a real bad feeling it will become one of those 'indefinite injuries'? Poor Sam can't get a run of games at the moment without getting injured again

agree and lets be honest beating Freeo is a tough gig so I say get Tippo out there asap and get some game time into him in our Seniors forward line
he can only help our seniors even half fit
BIG plus though is he will be ready for the following week and he only has to play 3qtrs anyway against freeo
I think it would be absolute lunacy to send Tippett out there half fit - the last thing we want to do is see him busted up because he's not 100% right. Would prefer to see him eased back in over the following two weeks, in games that, at least on paper, should be more straight forward for us.

surely they wouldnt put him out there in snrs if they didnt think he would be ok?
what i am alluding to is that no one on return is 100% match fit but in his role up front he could no doubt do 3qtrs pretty easy then bring on gazza
especially on the small SCG
then we have have him providing us a better chance vs other forward alternatives for this saturday but even better is that he will be even ready the week after
prob give him tippet a reserves run for mine. i think it's the best case coming off interrupted preparation and 12 games played in 18 months. He's the key to our forward structure. All the others at this stage are supporting cast and who's natural game isn't like his. They benefit from him being the anchor.
