A wave of injuries has swept across the NRL competition and the ongoing toll from Round 16 is putting considerable strain on some clubs.
Jack Bostock from The Dolphins is the latest addition to a considerable list, suffering what is expected to be classified as an ACL injury in the Redcliffe-based side's shock loss to the Newcastle Knights.
Origin availability is already throwing selection plans into chaos and the growing casualty ward poses headaches for teams looking to stay in the hunt for the finals.
