For Goldstein & Currie owners
Goldstein will be closely monitored amid fears the top-flight ruckman injured his left shoulder tendon — something that could out him for up to three months, according to sports medicine expert Dr Peter Larkins.
Goldstein rucked manfully using mainly his right arm after hurting his left shoulder in the first quarter.
Scott said he hoped the injury wasn’t serious but was adamant back-up big man Dan Carrie was ready to step up if called upon.
“The fact that he played on (is positive),” Scott said.
“There were certainly concerns about his rotator cuff, but we will have to get that scanned, I think it was difficult to tell.
“I wanted confirmation from Goldy himself that he was right to go (keep playing) and he felt he was, so the docs cleared him and Goldy felt he was right.
“ Hopefully that means it’s not too bad. If it is, Dan Currie is absolutely dying for his opportunity and if he gets his opportunity I expect him to take it.”
