To be fair posters pointed that out towards the end of last season and at the awards night before it came out he wanted to go back to Australia. Other posters then pointed out his wife complaining on Instagram.
I would rest SJ if its a tweak to a Hammy or Calf, he is too important to our game plan and season for one of those to go and be out for 4-8 weeks. With his age and injury history its best to be on the safe side this early in the season, I would give him a week or 2 off to rest it.

Even if we rest SJ against Titans, we would field a better halves pairing. I give us a chance to win without SJ against Tits and Dragons. If he needs to be rested, those are the games to do so, not this one. It's important for us to get as high up that ladder as possible pre origin.
If SJ didn't train tuesday then CHT would probably have run in that position.
If SJ doesn't play at least CHT will have had a weeks training in the role plus he has all the skill and experience required to do a job such that our game plan wouldn't neccessarily change so all good there.
However, who comes onto the bench? I assume we want someone to cover the backs so maybe Pompey. What do you all think?
