Worse thing about the game is the concussion king, Matterson, got through unscathed...

Nah I don't know **** mate. I just think the fuss is a bit OTT with head knocks and the calls for retirement.

Well, to be fair, I might have exaggerated a bit... ;) Probably because I'm genuinely concerned.
I hope to be wrong, of course, but concussions will be a recurring issue with him.


NRL Physio:
Dale Finucane is expected to miss 4-6 weeks with an MCL sprain suffered immediately after a concussion in Round 10. Will be interesting to see if he requires extra time off on top, with this being his fourth confirmed concussion in the past 10 months

Might be a blessing in disguise in that respect.

In your head, rent free
for anyone who watches our youtube show, we have signed nrl guru to do a brief segment each week

he has some pretty hit and miss info but recently has been pretty good

this isnt a plug post to watch by any means, however, in his latest segment he said finucane will miss more time than we initially thought

At least he brings some much needed leadership off of the field I guess.

Trying to find a silver-lining with this news

Turned out for us in two-thirds of his games so far this year. Same as the last two seasons for him. Going to be a long 4 years with him if he can't stay on the field consistently.

4 years was always a big risk with him, considering his concussion record and the way the game is heading

Last year is much cheaper, not as much risk that one. First three different story

His value is also in his professionalism, leadership and Training if he plays 2/3 games over 4 years and is available in the finals I would call a good buy. We are so much better with him in the side.

Nice way of plugging your show whilst at the same time saying I’m not plugging my show
