    Victor Radley’s worrying run of head knocks has continued after he suffered a game-ending concussion in the Sydney Roosters’ 12-8 win against the Knights in Newcastle on Saturday. Radley was rattled while attempting to make a tackle in the 36th minute and was taken from the field for a head-injury assessment, which he subsequently failed. It’s the seventh time in the past four seasons the 27-year-old has failed an HIA.

Brailey’s elder brother Jayden has a few such tales to tell, after tearing two ACLs and rupturing an Achilles tendon during his six seasons with Newcastle.

    A stat that tells the story: 34 points; that’s how many points the Eels have conceded in the past three games. A huge improvement to their defence after conceding 56 points to the Storm in a horror start to the Ryles campaign. The surprise packet: Isaiah Iongi took over from fan favourite Gutherson after just the one NRL appearance at the Panthers.
