For those who were nervous about Saturday and I am now just a tad worried

[sapajo]

Surely we cannot delay any possibility of signing any possible injury dispensations we are now down to the marrow even worse than last season.

Surely we cannot delay any possibility of signing any possible injury dispensations we are now down to the marrow even worse than last season.

Depends who is about I guess.

I would say maybe target some argentines but they would be gone until the end of AI's.

and what with the 4N, Top league, Currie cup and Aus rugby championship it is slim pickings.

5. So with Geoff Parling, Niall Morris and Tom Youngs looking like joining the rehab ward at Leicester this week, a crumb of comfort in some names possibly returning. Seremaia Bai and Manu Tuilagi could make it back, Jamie Gibson and Blaine Scully could return from injury, while Michele Rizzo and Brad Thorn are close to a first appearance

A training field injury!

[Bundy]

I thought last season was a cruel joke with the amount of injuries we had and just hoped that was a one-off and we could look forward to this season - apparently not!

[cidermark]

A training field injury!

Apologies smudge - who is the training field injury? Please don't say it's yet another injury since this thread started!!

[Rykard]

Parling is a bit worrying

[pat howard fan club]

The seriousness of Parling's repeated concussions can't be underestimated.

[Soggypitch]

RC said on Radio Leic last night that Bai, Scully and Benjamin would be fit for this weekend.

Manu, Allen, Parling, Youngs not.

He also said Thorne and Pearce should be ok for Gloucester.

Essentially we just have serious issues at lock and centre.

I think we will put a good enough team out to beat LI on Saturday, it's time to get right behind the team!!!

[RagingBull]

Going off that we could have this weekend:

1) Mulipola
2) Ghilrandi
3) Balmain
4) De Cheves
5) Kitchener
6) Croft
7) Salvi
8) Crane
9) Youngs
10) Williams (I talk is true that Williams is getting a run of games starting)
11) Benjamin
12) Bai
13) Smith
14) Goneva
15) Scully

16) Briggs
17) Brugnara
18) Pasquacli
19) Gibson
20) Barbieri
21) Harrison
22) Burns
23) Pohe (?)

although wouldn't mind seeing 10) Williams, 12) Burns, 13) Bai.

Wonder when Hepetema will be fit I think he would be a good option to look at 12 whilst allen is out.
