Tom Trbojevic is poised to be ruled out of the entire State of Origin series, with Manly officials expecting the star fullback to be sidelined for up to two months.
Scans will determine the full extent of the injury after Trbojevic injured his hamstring after colliding with a cameraman in. However, the Sea Eagles medical staff are bracing for him to be unavailable for between six and eight weeks.
The injury is a huge blow for the Blues, who will also be without South Sydney captain Cameron Murray for their campaign. Trbojevic was a contender for the NSW custodian role alongside James Tedesco and Dylan Edwards, and also under consideration for a centre spot alongside Stephen Crichton. Stephen Crichton - A certain selection. Is arguably the best defensive centre in the world and is a genuine leader, as evidenced by him skippering a resurgent Canterbury up the competition ladder.
Latrell Mitchell - Has missed a lot of football and would need a huge month to come into calculations. Is yet to decide whether he wants to be considered for selection for the opening game.
