[Liverbird with Phins up]

Kodi, 4 to 6 weeks. Thats pretty good considering. When I saw him pull up, I thought that would be the season.

Scans have confirmed Dolphins' five-eighth Kodi Nikorima will miss 6 weeks with a hamstring injury.
Nikorima sustained the injury in last Saturday's victory over the Rabbitohs, coming off in the 38th minute after pulling up on a defensive run.
A scan this week has set Nikorima's initial rehab timeline for a return to play in either Round 23 or 24, meaning he should only miss 3-4 games with Dolphins byes this week and in Round 21.

If we can just hang in. By some miracle created by the master coach Woolf. We might get a few coming back.

Haven't seen him in a long while at the coffee shop.

I promised I would get back when I do see him.

I'm not surprised he hasn't been ruled out. Because he quite literally looked ready to go every time I saw him. And I will say someone in my family knows someone close to him (that kind of doesn't let the cat out of the bag). And this person knew I was a fan, and gave me updates whenever I asked, without being overly personal.

Everything you heard in the media was probably over the top. I was always told he was going to be fine, and that everything went well, and rehab was going to be long, whilst he was still able to keep fit, and he certainly looks it.

He seems like a nice dude, one that you want in your team. So I hope he will be fine.

I would trust that he will be good
