RL:Eels reveal Moses injury outlook ahead of Origin II

Parramatta don't have any concerns with the handling of Mitchell Moses's fitness in the NSW Blues set-up, as the Eels skipper faces a race against the clock to play before Game 2 of State of Origin.

Moses was named to start at five-eighth in Origin I but pulled up with a hamstring issue after the Blues' penultimate training session and was replaced by Ethan Strange.

Canberra playmaker Strange had one of the best Origin debuts in recent memory as the Blues took a 1-0 lead in the series with a 22-20 win in Sydney on Wednesday.

Moses won't play for the Eels against Newcastle on Saturday but Parramatta coach Jason Ryles hopes his star playmaker will be back on deck for their clash with Canterbury the following Monday.
