Raiders get double Papa boost on injury and contract fronts – NRL.COM
Josh Papalii’s potential month-long recovery from a shoulder injury has made Canberra’s bid for a top four finish even more critical, with one of the game’s premier props expected to be sidelined until week two of the finals.
Josh Papalii has been cleared of a serious shoulder injury and remains on track to re-sign long term with the Raiders in a double boost for their all-important top-four hopes.
Papalii had Canberra sweating scan results on Monday after he was forced from the field during Saturday’s loss to the Roosters.
There were fears Papalii could have been out for up to a month, but he may yet be able to paddock against St George Illawarra this Saturday depending on how the injury fares during the week.
