Taylor visited a urologist on Wednesday to determine a recovery plan, where he was cleared to resume running from next week. However, the All-Australian is still likely to be sidelined for the club's next few matches.
While the results were viewed as a positive for Taylor's recovery, the star defender will likely still be ruled out of a critical period where Adam Kingsley's side will look to negate a run of just three wins from their past nine matches.PLAYERCARDSTARTAdam Kingsley

As long as it's cautionary and not a set back it's tolerable.Kelly is taking a bit longer to recover than expected.
Wasn’t it 4-6 initially?As long as it's cautionary and not a set back it's tolerable.
Damn, that's almost the season for Cheese - would be difficult to break back in during finals, unless there are other injuries.6 weeks for Cheese
Kelly still listed as 3 weeks.
It’s not surgery for that type of hamstringConsidering it's a 6 week injury for Cumming, I don't think it's wise for him to play again this season.
We were smashed in the 2019 GF partly because we had players who were not match-fit after recovering from injury.
Considering his contract expires this year - are Cumming's soft-tissue injuries chronic??
He makes the team better, no doubt, but are we going to have another player on the list who is part-time at best?
I reckon if he goes in for surgery soon, it means his contract will be renewed.
Hope he does and gets those hamstrings right for 2025.
the impression he gave me a couple of weeks back was that he would be given more time if we were win ingKelly's injury is a bit depressing. It's been at 3 weeks for what... 3 weeks now?
If that's the case (and the Giants are being upfront, and that's a big if), Cumming could well have played his last game for the Giants.It’s not surgery for that type of hamstring
But even with this, our offer will be $100k less than the reported offer by other clubs. Perryman will lose $1 million over 8 years by staying with us - I would love to keep him but would completely understand if he took the higher offer.If that's the case (and the Giants are being upfront, and that's a big if), Cumming could well have played his last game for the Giants.
Someone who plays only a handful of games every year due to chronic soft-tissue injuries, absorbing a substantial amount of $$$ from the cap is not what the club needs, no matter how well he benefits the team when fit.
Maybe use the $$$ to edge up Perryman's offer (as a thought) to $700K instead of $650K as has been suggested.
But even with this, our offer will be $100k less than the reported offer by other clubs. Perryman will lose $1 million over 8 years by staying with us - I would love to keep him but would completely understand if he took the higher offer.
