Wow how hard is flanagan's head!

No harder than anyone elses, the top of someones head going into the front of someone face is always going to result in an outcome like that. Totally accidental though and I hope Lauaki is okay.

Lauaki was 'spark out' and have now seen it close up on HD.

His eyeballs had rolled up.

Thought it was very serious at one stage, hopefully OK.

He didn't go to hospital during the match. He was still in his kit pottering around in the dugouts at the end of the game, looking pretty groggy. Thought he might have broke his jaw like one of the Leeds players last year? (Burgess?) Definitely looked like there may be some teeth missing though.

Was in west today (dont ask) and walking off his jaw looked hanging and swollen....gonna watch on tele in a bit to see what commentators reckon

Tv said he had a few stitches but not break. I think he may have some sort of concussion because he looked like he wasn't sure where he was at the end, or maybe thats just how he looks

Bump: Any news on Eric yet?

Touch and go for the weekend according to Wane today.

We could do with him with Prescott and Flower now being out for 6 weeks each.

They said in commentary there was no break, and they will assess him for a possible concussion during the week.

He'll be reet. Friday might be too soon though. Doctors tend to err on the side of caution with concussions

Given the increasing evidence of potential long-term damage from head impacts, I'd be disappointed if he's allowed to play again within 2 weeks.

This weekend you will see Gil dudson start with mossop, with lima on bench alongside tuson, hughes and faz.

Crosby will be in the 19.

H will step up to prop alongside lima
