Sam - Why are there so many shoulder injuries at the Tigers? Could it be a training issue?

Jono - Any news on Ollie Pascoe? Took a couple of big hits but no mention on commentary

Bill - If you’ve got Casey McLean is he a hold? Do you seem him as an end game CTW?

Lyle - Tom Trbojevic seemed to lack explosive power? Just part of his comeback? Has it put you off buying?

Jack - any updates on the Raiders forwards Matty Nicholson, Noah Martin and Simi Sasagi?

Hayden - Kiraz seems so busted but keeps putting up points, would you buy him or is the injury risk too high?

Matty - If I’ve still got Luki and Marzhew are they sells?
