I think Smith is more of a doubt than Bailey.

My concern next week is full back. Scotty is not a full back, as much as he did ok last night. Think I heard BJB was back in training, but it is probably too soon for him to come back, as I suspect it will be for Webb, regardless of what has been said on here.
Smith with pain killing injections??? Who knows.

One thing I have noticed is that Bluey is keeping injury news very close to his chest this year.

Do you have a source?

Jord said he spoke to Webb after the Celtic game and that he had about 6 weeks from there.

Smith/Donald
Donald/Watkins
Watkins/Ablett
Senior
Hall
McGuire
Burrow
Leuluai
Diskin
Peacock
Jones-Buchanan
Lauiti'iti
Sinfield

Kirke
Burgess
Buderus/McShane
Ablett/Allan

Think that is pretty simple to understand

Melbourne put the cleaners through this 'Manly Whatever' team around this time last season. If London (oops Harlequins) don't put at least a similar 40+ score on them then that's a good sign Manly are here to play.

Bailey will be defo out.

That will be for the doctor to decide and any such desicion will have regard to any "concussion" involved.

I read the spinal board as purely precautionary and in fact Sky reported this almost immediately they reached the dressing rooms as Ryan Bailey was fully conscious and mobile.

IIRC a concussion diagnosis will result in a mandatory weeks lay off but even then that would even then make him available for the WCC.

Wasn't that binned in favour of the Cognitive test?

I am because it's only since we started winning it that it became meaningless
When the aussies won it through melbourne and the roosters they were taking it seriously and the timing of the fixture wasn't an issue.
Now there's a regular english winner it's a pre-season game and the timing(which has already been changed to them more prep time) is all wrong blah blah.
