I think Turbo's injury was just a cork... looked like he picked it up when Staggs and Reynolds tackled him on a kick chase

Yeah NRL Physio confirmed this. He received a knock to the upper thigh and that's why he was limping, not because his knee wasn't right. Majority are fine within a week so provided he doesn't receive another knock or aggravates the knee, he'll be good to go for Origin and won't have any issues.

That's a problem for us. Turbo isn't a player that has many back-to-back bad games.

Cobbo is in for sure, you can't resist the way he is playing. Oates too. We will definitely be losing a few for origin:

Cobbo
Oates
Carrigan
Flegler
Capewell
Staggs

Maybe Hetherington

Don’t want to put too much pressure on cobbo and would happily see him miss origin 1. But he could seriously light up origin. I see some yow yeh, Inglis and Hodges in him.

We only have to play on the 3rd game, even still it's only against the dragons, who will miss Hunt, our spine will be unchanged, I would be confident even with the lack of forwards and our right edge.

Yeah it's probably spot on, 50/50 on Tino or Carrigan swapping.

If Willison isn't back though, who do we go with? My guess would be Bayliss-Brow and I really would be excited to see him get a shot too.

Only thing I’d change is Collins over Fotuaika, and maybe Tino off the bench and start Cotter.

Our origin affected game is round 17... things can change.

I'm not 100% sold they'll go Oates for the series, and Latrell will be back for game 2 onwards so Staggs should be safe for us in rd 17... but I think Haas, Capewell, Patty and now Cobbo are all good chances for all games though... Flegler may be a chance, but I think there are a couple middles that might get a gig ahead of him.

Main thing will be that NSW ain't picking Arey

Surely Reynolds has bought himself a spot in the squad? Though probably not given his age...I'd expect probably Mitch Moses as #7 cover...will be interesting to see which way Fittler goes.

Reynolds might be in the extended squad but unless Cleary gets injured I can't see him being picked.

Moses isn't bad but he isn't at his level no way.
