Big decision this week - Turbo looks well below 100% but if he misses Origin would you bring him or Teddy in for SuperCoach?

Can you explain the Marzhew knee situation? Trying to decide if he is worth holding

How is Brandon SMith able to run around and boot a ball at training but he’s still a month away from returning?

Are Carter Gordon or Tom Flegler likely to come back this season?

If I’ve still got Couchman is it worth selling with the high re-injury rate or hold?

Where is Daniel Saifiti and Max Plath?

What is your ranking of teams for quality of injury information available?

When’s Bundy Mixer live and is there a Magic Sponge league again this year?

Any cheapies you’ve got your eye on over the Origin period?

Does the type of sport affect recovery time eg Jayson Tatum vs Cameron Murray achilles injury?

What are your thoughts on the Dr Karl video about ice baths on recovery?
