Kade Reed injury opens door for Kyle Flanagan’s Dragons return
Winless St George Illawarra have been dealt another blow with rookie halfback Kade Reed suffering a hand injury that could rule him out for up to three months.
Reed did not train in Wollongong on Tuesday after rupturing a tendon in one of his fingers against Newcastle on Saturday and will not be named in Dean Young’s team to face Penrith on Sunday to close out the NRL’s Magic Round at Suncorp Stadium.
In his absence, Kyle Flanagan is set to be recalled to the Dragons halves to partner Daniel Atkinson, who has also been carrying a hand injury. Atkinson missed Saturday’s defeat to Newcastle but trained on Tuesday.

Horror blow for Dragons as Kade Reed faces long sideline stint
Kyle Flanagan will likely earn a first-grade reprieve with Kade Reed to spend an extended time on the sidelines after injuring his finger during the game against the Newcastle Knights on the weekend.
While it's unclear exactly how the injury took place, with Reed finishing the game.
It has emerged since that he could miss up to three months, according to a News Corp report.
That likely means it's a broken finger and will need surgery to rectify the problem.
A three-month lay-off could mean Reed is out until mid-August, with a tricky run of fixtures ahead for the Dragons including the Panthers, Warriors, Broncos, Sharks, Knights, Raiders, Tigers and Warriors to the end of the Origin period, before they play the Titans, Dolphins and Sharks, with that game in Round 23 potentially being Reed's return target if recovery is as slow as forecast.
