Mitchell Moses Out of Origin Opener After Suffering Hamstring Injury The news that Mitchell Moses will likely miss the Origin opener due to a minor hamstring strain is a harsh reminder of the physical toll that State of Origin rugby league can take on its players.
The 25 year old playmaker, who has been a key component in the Parramatta Eels' success, joins an ever growing list of high profile players who have succumbed to injuries in the lead up to Origin.
NSW doctor Nathan Gibbs stated that a minor strain typically takes three to four weeks to heal. This means Moses will likely miss at least one, if not two, matches against New South Wales' arch rivals from Queensland.
