However it sounds like Bruce will be out now with a heel injury.
Saw on facebook he was getting acupuncture on it earlier today.

i think carter will be crucial in us suffering a 10 point loss instead of 20 point.
i seriously hope our road form picks up because its been pretty disgusting this season.
what now for Aaron Bruce ?
I thought he was playing pretty well considering his lack of game time over the last couple of seasons
No Deal!!

Will Bruce stay on as the replacment for Ng? I've heard alot of differing stories on how injury waivers work...

Good to see Carter back although wouldnt expect too much from him after having a few weeks off.
Wasn't Bruce playing with that injury on Sunday?
Pretty sure Bruce will cover for Ng on injury waivers now Anon but could be wrong?

i was watching the VOD cast on the NBL site and Grantly bernard and Gaze said that once the injured player has returned the fill in used (in this case Bruce) can then fill in for another player injured. they were referring specifically to the wildcats though with redhage. so Majok can stick around to replace Redhage if knight returns. i believe thats who majok was filling in for. and brown for wagstaff? either way as long as that injured player has returned then bruce could technically fill in for darren.

SRT070, other way around for the Cats replacements.
are you sure bruce can replace somebody else? remember when vanderjagt was an injury replacement for the blaze he couldnt come back for another player for some reason. Also same thing with Gleeson this year signes as injury replacement for cadee but when cadee returned the blaze travelled with 8 guys at one stage because Gleeson could no longer travel

The injury must be season ending.
Bruce replaced carter, when Carter comes back Bruce must go, if Ng was not season ending Bruce cannot replace NG

That's right. Season ending injury is the key. Bruce replacing Ng will mean Ng cant return even if he recovers quicker than expected as I understand it.
