Workington Away Squad : Thu Jul 07, 2022 8:28 pm  

What is our thoughts on team for Workington Away. Rotation of heavily used players?

That seems to be pretty much what Lam has indicated in his pre-match interview will happen.

Looks like Charnley may be getting a run out.

Bad news on Green with another setback on his recovery. Another couple of weeks at least before he may be available. Just when he was ready to start again.

What's the news on Chamberlain & O'Donnell? Having watched the previous match in its entirety today, am pretty damned concerned about the latter. When hard men don't get up at all it's a worry.

Wish them both well.

Bongser, Lam seems to be more optimistic about Chamberlain, indicating he might just be available for this weekend's game but probably won't be. This is better than originally feared when post match last weekend he thought it would be around the 4 week mark for the anticipated recovery. Seemingly, if Chamberlain isn't fit to play then Charnley might get a go, despite the two playing in different positions.

I have not heard anything more specific about O'Donnell. Yes, it looked bad when it happened, hence the concern that I have expressed previously, but Lam seemed to indicate yesterday that it is not as bad an injury as first feared. Who knows what that means. I really do hope that it is good news and that he will be back playing again soon.

On a separate note, bad news for Kheirallah at Fev with his season ending knee injury. That's a real bummer for the player. I never wish ill luck or injury on an opposing player and I really do hope that he makes a full recovery. The poor lad could be out for much of the next 12 months which clearly will not be easy for him.

It's been said many times before but it still holds true. RL is a hard game played by hard men - and now also by hard women

Main issue is 5 wingers and 1 centre. Charnley and Ferguson are likely starters, and the spare centre position will go to Brand or Inu.
