The Fox story quotes the Sydney Morning Herald as saying the medical advice Finucane received about repeated head knocks forced this decision.

If not Demetriou or Arthur then who? O’Brien perhaps?
Surely we can’t have a season without at least one coach being unceremoniously punted.

Yep, 18 is far too young to be considered venerable.
I do like the idea of one’s imagination being “dilutional” though.

Congratulations on another good article Maso.
Two complications I see for the Roosters in dealing with the fullback question are the impending, and no doubt disappointing, departure of Manu to rugby, and Tedesco’s worrying run of concussions.
Moving Tedesco for the departing Manu would only provide a short-term solution, and would Tedesco be more likely to suffer further concussions if he’s playing in the front line?

NRL Round 7 judiciary: Knight gets ban for tunnel brawl, Tigers star facing ban, Roosters duo charged
JWH was suspended for one game for tripping James Roberts in the Roosters V Souths qualifying final in 2019, but that was probably only due to his usual baggage of carry-over demerit points. He missed the preliminary final but was back for the grand-final win.
