Was surprised to see him left out on Saturday.

Yes as i said somewhere previously, he has picked up another niggly hamstring prior to Saturday but hopefully not serious.

Hopefully good signs it was indeed only minor.

On a rugby forum I used to visit, there was a injuries thread/sticky with injured players, their injuries and potential return dates. It would be great to have something like that, but I guess Town just aren't transparent enough with how their players are doing, I can understand that for a few reasons, but it would be good.

Good news indeed

We have far too many injuries sustained in non competitive games at this cLub. Either the coaching / training approach is all wrong , or the rehab team are poor ( which I doubt personally).

It will be interesting to see what our injuries rate is like next season when MM / Connor have left the Club.

Good point Hallam. I have wondered something similar in the past, but never mentioned it as I am not clever enough to offer a qualified opinion, unlike yourself of course bearing in mind the profession you are in.

As you say, it will be interesting to see what will happen when the current incumbents p*ss off (hopefully) come May.

I think a lot of it is down to us being so cheaply run, we take on good players that have lost some value or that other clubs have given up on and replaced in their team because of injury issues. It may also mean we are hasty, or because of a lighter squad, are forced to play players with niggles, or our youngsters, far more than we really should. Bishop played quite a lot when he was just 18 and perhaps we are now seeing the remnants of doing too much too soon in such an athletic league.

Hallam, I know you are in the business and know your stuff about treatments &c but what statistics do you base your statement on?

AW FFS!! We need to know stats and sh*t before posting? That's really going to affect things around here!

Hahaha nice one!
