Is he deffo out for the next six weeks?

What about fast tracking one of the half backs from the academy?

Not heard this.

He is in a pot on crutches, 6-8 weeks out

ffs!

Disastrous news.

Get Brierley in!

I guess we play Huddersfield with McGoldrick & Chase at 6 & 7.

Yep looks that way! the way Chase is playing not 2 worried!

that is an absolute nightmare especially for next week...

get brierly in there i agree!

Nothing on teletext or on news sites. Where has this come from?

He will be missed.

Shifty

Id put him on the bench and give him some game time if needed its all exerience for him and he may just be another myler/tomkins... that can kick on and force his way into the first team!!!

Chase best position is hooker and Mcgoldrick fullback,sticking anyone else in those positions will weaken the side overall.
I say promote Brierley at 7 and Sione 6. McGoldrick can link up from fullback to help out and have Ford and Netherton cover on bench.

No-one fancy the option of Westy at 6

Westy made over 40 tackles against Leeds. Someone else would have to do that tackling stint in his place.

Agreed. Thats the dilemma we have. He played a different role against fax, hence the breaks running out wide, but we really missed his defence in the middle of the park.

We can't put Sione at 6 though, we need someone to create. Lets face it, having Westy at 6 will also stiffen up the middle of the park, bit like when we had Kempy

is there a link telling of shiftys injury

Apart from The Guardian reporting a brief bit that he was going for x-rays, League Weekly stating the same really, no official links.

The club will be day off today due to Bank Holiday anyway, one would assume, so tomorrow is when we are likely to hear news.

just when we got him fit from last season too

the guy is plastic. the only rugby player i have ever heard of with brittle body desease.

As opposed to your favourite player who doesn't have a backbone

I almost forgot about Mr Brown's orgasmic fascination with our former player, seems many moons ago when he used to troll on here extolling Korki's virtues, I bet he's drooling once again, now his beloved Korky's back in town.
