Blayke Brailey has a suspected broken arm and has been ruled out,\u201d Fox League\u2019s Jake Duke reported.<\/p>\n<p>Blayke Brailey siffered the injury in this tackle attempt on Manly&#8217;s Jason Saab.Source: FOX SPORTS<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a man who has missed one game of football in the past six seasons but he\u2019ll be needing scans and I imagine at least a couple of weeks on the sideline. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe only just made his Origin debut but will be racing the clock (for Game II).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis will have ramifications for New South Wales as well as the Sharks,\u201d Dan Ginnane added.<\/p>\n<p>Sharks coach Craig Fitzgibbon confirmed that the initial reports seem to be correct.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHopefully it\u2019s a clean (break) and not displaced. That would minimise the time on the sideline,\u201d Fitzgibbon said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStill trying to work out whether he should\u2019ve played him but he was delivering for us. He\u2019s such a player, but he\u2019s not going to be out forever. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cFive minutes after Origin he texted and said he wanted to play and he wanted to play for this bloke (Cam McInnes\u2019 100th game for the club). <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s an opportunity though for other guys. We have Pep (Hohepe Puru) and Bez (Jayden Berrell) who have been ready and have delivered for us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Iconic Sharks try on stroke of HT | 00:30<\/p>\n<p>One of the NRL\u2019s most durable players, Brailey only recently missed his first game in 139 appearances due to a concussion.<\/p>\n<p>That streak was an NRL high among active players.<\/p>\n<p>Duke provided an additional update after Cronulla\u2019s 28-22 win and gave an indication how long Brailey could be looking on the sideline.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI saw him after the game, he didn\u2019t have a sling but he had his arm covered and didn\u2019t shake hands with his right arm. I asked him how he was and he said he was ok,\u201d Duke said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe quickest return I can think of from a broken arm was Jarome Luai which was about three weeks, but they are generally long term.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sharks gun Blayke Brailey is in serious doubt for the rest of the Origin series after suffering a&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":702319,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[43,44,85,41,39,42,40],"class_list":["post-702318","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-sports","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/702318","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=702318"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/702318\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/702319"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=702318"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=702318"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=702318"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
