Absolutely! I’d love to see Murph get to 300 but, like every player on the list, he has to earn his spot each round.

Does being the sub count as a game if they don’t take the field?

Its Ed's 200th and Charlie is harrassing the coaches trying to get back for this game.
Charlie was supposedly going to be back for next week.
Should we 'risk it' ?
Bring him back for Ed's 200th!
Casboult won't come up. It'd be good to have another athletic tall in the team.

Yes. He was a sub before he got injured and it counted. Just like a couple of first gamer's have been credited with a game without actually getting on the field.

Agreed. Murphy is running out of time. He has 4 games to go with 5 games till the end of the season. We would have to make finals to guarantee his 300 if he cannot get on the field in the next couple of games.
On another note Eddie has 4 games to 350 so we should see that in round 22 barring injuries. Hope he gets there as well. Personally I cannot see why he could not play on next year the way he is playing ATM.

Some are assuming this will be Murphy's final season. Whilst it seems more likely than less, there's no indication from club or player one way or the other. There's a few different arrangements by which he could contribute next season, without necessarily being one of main playing group.

Bring him back for Ed's 200th! No Be far better for Charlie, if ready, to come back the week after, that way each Curnow is a focus for each week - Charlie's return will be a massive event for him, club and supporters all on its Pat Malone. Let Ed have the limelight this week.

If the rumours are true, Levi's PCL injury is touch and go for him to even play again this season, he is a coin toss from immediate surgery. I suppose the club is in a tough spot, Pittonet recovering form surgery, De Koning is still a kid with a less than durable history, so I suppose if Levi is borderline he stays as an option that can play if needed be it with some hinderence.
In hindsight they probably should have addressed Levi's PCL when it first happened early in the season, and he could well be almost ready to resume now. Most PCL's excluding the most severe cases are back in about 12 weeks.
Oscar McDonald can't be far away.

Oscar Levi and Mitch are all on the cusp of returning in the next couple weeks.

I've heard Levi could play now, but in reality should be at least a month away.
