Storm website today:
Harry Grant injured hamstring at training on Thursday and will miss at least the next two games.

Jack Howarth (shoulder) and Tui Kamikamica (ankle) will have scans in Melbourne to determine the extent of their injuries.

They won’t tell us the truth or tell us at all

Reports today that Will's concussion issues date back to a head knock he got in the in the Indigenous / All-Stars game. He seemed ok and played a couple of games after that and then had significant delayed symptoms.
No expected return date at this point.

Do we get salary cap relief since it happened in a rep game then?

That'd be nice.

There's certainly a rule to allow it if a player missed a certain number of games. Can see them denying us because a) we're the Storm and b) he's played 2 games since.

I am sorry. I do not believe the Warbrick concussion story at all. There is more going on.

Have you had concussions
Have you had concussions and had to play sport
Have you had concussions and had to play rugby league

Maybe knock yourself out out a few times shine a light in your eyes bang your head against a wall run into a truck then try and do your original job

Concussion is defferent for everyone it can last 5 minutes or way longer …maybe go have a chat to Dallas Johnson and see what concussions did to him over a long period of time

Let will come back as quick or slow as he wants

I hear ya Sally

But, I remember what happened to Reimis last year and the way he left the club.

In Will's case I hope it is as the club tells us and you believe and that he can come back

The club don't have a good record of transparency (of course, they don't have to tell us anything / everything 🙄)

In answer to you question YES I have. I know what it is like.

I as not critcizing the players. Never mention any names. I like Will is great and he needs to be well before playing again. I was talking about the club not giving us all the inforamtion. Which you had said a couple of posts before!!!

Bullucked understood what I was saying. It is just my opinion which I believe we are all allowed to have.

There was also a mention of “compassion” with NAS last night. Maybe he’s had some off field issues? I didn’t think Meaney would be back in team before Nelson. Did anyone?

Hope Will is ok. We are missing hah returns and X factor on the wing

I think it's a good sign that Will has been around the boys at training (despite not training) and he was at the game last night.

Apparently Sua isn't showing any signs of concussion post game so that's hopefully good news at least

Is there a mandatory stand down period or is that the AFL?
