AFL 2025: Hawthorn coach Sam Mitchell addresses James Sicily's injury concern

Hawthorn coach Sam Mitchell has cleared the air over the injury concern to star captain James Sicily. Mitchell last week strongly defended the fitness of Sicily for him to later be ruled out for at least the next two weeks with a hip-abdominal issue. Sicily will miss the Hawks' season-shaping matches with Western Bulldogs on Thursday night and Adelaide next Friday. Mitchell conceded his comments 'didn't age too well' but doubled down on his previous stance of Sicily playing uninjured. 'We have management of lots of different players across the season of course, and at no point has he been a chance to not play,' Mitchell said. 'That was my frustration last week. It didn't age too well, obviously … at no point have we even considered not playing him, it hasn't even been close. 'There's injuries where 'is he going to get to the line? Is he going to be able to play this week?' He's never been in that category, he's definitely been playing every week – obviously it doesn't age well when it comes out like that. 'He got something that we didn't expect, it's been tracking, getting slightly better each week. His numbers on the screen have been getting slightly better. 'Then this week he had a big progression, so we need to get him right.' Mitchell said Sicily's injury concern had nothing to do with the groin and was in a 'higher spot'. The injury, according to Mitchell, can be 'unpredictable' but he still expected Sicily to return on time for Hawthorn's match with North Melbourne after the bye. 'You don't see that (the injury) often, we have had one recently a couple of years ago which can settle down in a couple weeks, but they can take a little bit longer,' he said. 'We're hopeful the two weeks can be a maximum. He would probably play the third we hope, but there's a bye then, so on the other side of the bye hopefully we get him back. 'One of the downsides of the injury is that he hasn't been able to train a lot. While playing has never been a risk, his actual training consistency hasn't been there. 'Obviously, that makes it a little bit tougher to perform on the weekend, but he's such a proud sort of guy he's always trying to train, always trying to do a bit more.'

NSW cop another unwanted injury headache ahead of State of Origin II as Reece Robson under a cloud

NSW have been given an unwanted headache before State of Origin II, with hooker Reece Robson in doubt to play for North Queensland again before selection. Robson backed up from the Blues' series-opening win to run out for the Cowboys last week against Wests Tigers, but left the field early with hamstring tightness. The dummy-half has been named to face Melbourne on Friday night, but coach Todd Payten said Robson was far from certain to play. 'He's in some doubt. He's got to get the body moving,' Payten said. 'We'll just be guided by the medical team and make a call come captain's run. But he's got a couple of boxes to tick.' Blues officials will name their squad for Origin II after this weekend, with the final game on the public holiday Monday between Canterbury and Parramatta. Robson would be expected to be named in the NSW squad regardless of whether he plays this weekend, but it would leave his fitness clouded for Origin II in Perth. Apisai Koroisau would remain the most likely back-up option for the Blues, after losing his spot to Robson in the 2023 series. Cronulla hooker Blayke Brailey would be another option, while NSW already have Sydney Roosters No.9 Connor Watson in their side as a bench utility. NSW selectors already have one decision to make ahead of game two, with prop Mitchell Barnett ruled out for the season with an ACL rupture. Melbourne's Stefano Utoikamanu is favoured to replace him, while South Sydney workhorse Keaon Koloamatangi is making a strong case. The Cowboys have also ruled Murray Taulagi out of Friday's clash because of the calf injury that cost him a spot in the Maroons side for Origin I. It means the six-time Maroons winger will not play again before teams are selected for Origin II, in a major hit to his selection chances. Fellow Cowboys star Jason Taumalolo is also out of the Storm clash, after failing to recover in time from a calf injury. He and Taulagi are expected to be fit to face the Dolphins next week. 'They just didn't come up to the mark. We need them to get a full week of training under their belt to play at NRL level,' Payten said. 'They both weren't there this week given it was a six-day turn off the back of last week's game. 'Next week is a longer turn-around and we expect them on the pitch on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and be right to play against the Dolphins.'

Ocean Alley return with their fifth album, Love Balloon

Ocean Alley are finally locking in their return with their fifth studio album, Love Balloon . It sure feels like it's been an age since we've heard from the Northern Beaches six piece beyond the odd track, so it's exciting to know that their next big project sits just on the other side of winter. Love Balloon will be with us on September 19. We've had our first taste of the new Ocean Alley record with 'Tangerine' and 'Left Of The Dealer' (their first releases since 2022's Low Altitude Living ), and now we have another morsel through the album's title track, 'Love Balloon'. This new one sees the band expanding on their infectious grooves with bright, soulful and deliriously loved-up lyricism. Watch this one get immediately added to wedding playlists right across the board. With their fifth album, Ocean Alley set out to explore all facets of love beyond what we project to the public – they're going warts and all. "Not just the cinematic kind where you're falling head over heels," keyboardist and vocalist Lach Galbraith said. "The full spectrum; joy, hurt, discomfort and disappointment. Let's call it the river of love – whether it's with a partner, a friend, or family, you'll never know when it'll get deep, go shallow, or suddenly change course. "It's such a force that you have to just surrender to its current." Ocean Alley are heading off to chase the sun on a North American tour in July and returning again in October, with a couple of cheeky shows in Europe and the UK around the time the album drops. But we bet the call of the Australian summer will lure them back home soon enough.
