The Cronulla Sharks<\/a> are understood to be expecting Nicho Hynes<\/a> to miss at least another fortnight.<\/p>\n Hynes was withdrawn from the Sharks’ narrow win over the Manly Sea Eagles<\/a> over the weekend after suffering a calf injury.<\/p>\n It was tipped at the time that the star halfback, formerly a Dally M Medal winner, was only going to miss a single week, however, coach Craig Fitzgibbon<\/a> indicated in his post-match press conference that he wouldn’t be rushing Hynes back.<\/p>\n It has now been revealed by News Corp that Hynes could miss another two or three weeks as he gets back to full fitness, with the Sharks keen to avoid a more serious injury by playing through it.<\/p>\n The halfback will likely continue to be replaced by Niwhai Puru<\/a> after he did a solid job against Manly in replacing him, while normal halves partner Braydon Trindall<\/a> stole the show with a sensational performance.<\/p>\n Hynes being out for the coming games means he won’t suit up against the St George Illawarra Dragons<\/a> – who recorded their first win in 15 starts against the Brisbane Broncos<\/a> at Suncorp Stadium on Sunday – or the New Zealand Warriors<\/a> in Auckland during Round 15.<\/p>\n If he is touch and go for Round 16, the Sharks may also rest him from the clash against the Sydney Roosters<\/a> with a bye to follow, before he is almost certain to be back for a trip to Brisbane where they will clash with the Broncos on July 4.<\/p>\n
