Exactly.

Surely, unless your part of his medical team and you know this to be absolutely true then this is actually just opinion until the event occurs? Or is it a case of putting 3 exclamation marks after the word "fact" means its indisputable?

Thanks for this.

In hindsight, I am truly disappointed in myself for only putting 3 exclamation marks after the word fact, because 33 would have been more fitting.

Self evidently I am expressing a personal opinion rather than offering a guarantee, but in this context you know exactly what I mean.

So at the risk of boring repetition, Albert Kelly will be part of our 17 that walks out to face Leeds at Wembley on 29th in my humble and honest OPINION in FACT.

Agree 100% with this.

We don't have any other players with great hair, (although I did note on Sunday that Mo-Reece has added a cheeky little tuft to the top of his barnet) he HAS to play.

Are any of the Leeds players likely to be a problem from a tonsorial viewpoint?
I'm not too familiar with their squad......especially the fringe players.

Re: Albert Kelly injury : Mon Aug 17, 2015 7:47 pm  

Very nice.

Watkins used to have an uber 'fro, much quieter season from him since that went, can't really think of any of them that stand out. Delaney used to have a terrible almost Mohawk thing going on, detracting in an Ashton Simms Neanderthal man kinda way.

I always though Little Robbie Burrow could have done so much more with his and therefore have been truely world class.

Certainly nothing in Alby's class.

Yes. Carl Ablett. Aerodynamically superior to any of our boys. You would need to check with Goose to see if he rates him in one of his wigs.

Briscoe is a greaseball especially up top on his bonse. Too much product going on and especially for a cut that my mate's 87 year old mother could do better armed with her pudding basin and secateurs.

I still say no if not fit dont play if fit play what would happen if he broke down and was not then fit for the rest of the season is it worth the risk I dont think so

The modern interchange rule means that if he can run, he has to play, IMO. Especially with Campese out.
If he can't run then that's obviously different, but we have to give ourselves a chance. Not like these opportunities come around very often.

Anybody have any updates, official or other, on Alberts injury situation or recovery?

Normally someone will have seen him jog to the bog or seen him in St Stephens sporting a new super duper hairstyle.
