The Newcastle Knights have emerged from the NRL trial games with the whole team virtually unscathed with only Beau Scott a possible round 1 exclusion.
The list of injured players compiled by Fox Sports has grown considerably over the course of the NRL trial games to include many big name players.
The Warriors star halfback Shaun Johnson is the most recent name added to the list after hyper-extending his elbow in their win over Brisbane on Saturday.
Johnson will join Carlos Tuimavave, Sam Lousi, Sione Lousi, Nathan Friend and Russell Packer on the bench when the Warriors play their first round against the Parramatta Eels.
South Sydney and St George Illawarra both have significant loses with Luke Burges out until round 12 for Souths and Kyle Stanley out for the season for St George.
Brisbane winger/fullback Jharal Yow Yeh continues his horror run with injury with further surgery on his ankle and teammate Dale Copley has been ruled out for the season after sustaining a knee injury.
Yow Yeh knows all too well what Copley is facing after sitting out almost the entire 2012 season when he sustained a compound fracture in his ankle in round 4 against South Sydney.
Yow Yeh was hoping to return in the round one clash with Manly but more clean up surgery was required on scar tissue around the injury which has set back his return appearance.
