Three nights in hospital and a ligament tear. But don't tell these Blues they'll miss Origin decider
Jarome Luai spent three nights in hospital last week to treat a staph infection, and Brian To'o suffered a grade-two lateral ligament tear in his left knee last Thursday night, but the Blues are confident both will play in the State of Origin series decider in Sydney on July 9. To'o's injury will prevent him from stretching out fully with NSW until the weekend at the earliest. Prop Payne Haas also remained in Brisbane to undergo regular treatment on his lower back and did not arrive in camp until Monday night, while Nathan Cleary confirmed his groin is fine, but he is unlikely to kick goals at Accor Stadium next week. Luai missed Wests Tigers' Friday night clash because of an infection, and revealed how a planned short hospital stay turned into three nights. 'I had a staph infection,' Luai said. 'I didn't think much of it at the time, and thought I'd be right for Friday's game [against Manly], but I woke up the morning of the captain's run, something wasn't right, and I ended up in hospital. 'Where the wound was, it was pretty red, and it didn't feel right. It was on the chest, but then it spread. 'We play injured, we play sick, but once the doctors tell you it's worse than what you think, I had to put my ego and pride aside and look after my body. Our health is our wealth. 'I could have got out Saturday, but to make sure it was fully gone, I stayed an extra night.
