Players don't get injured out of choice. It's a tough sport and it happens.

Matt had a terrible year but has eventually come back all the stronger for his time out of the game. We hope it will be the same for others.

The club has a back room team second to none and they do an excellent job of getting players fit again. I'm sure our frustration is small when compared to that on an injured player, all of whom live to play rugby :smt023

What do you reckon they get to talk about; length and content of their sick notes, the quality of the cushioning on the physio benches, perhaps even the weather and the state of the pitch????
Probably talking about how fantastic a job they have getting paid for "watching" rugby.
Manu the sick-note and JDV the no vote.

Tuilagi must be close to the last chance saloon with his injury status and JDV symptomatic of Tigers' seemingly irresistible urge to sign players who are injured (and preferably on a short term contract).

I wonder whether the Toulon supporters have a similar thread about Paul O Connell?

Yeah, come to think about it, I haven't seen him on here for a while. He moved into the bakery you know. Probably stuck on the Crumbie somewhere.

As Rykard said JDV and Manu will both be available for Quins (according to Cockers) as will BOC!!

I think he said M Williams one week later, he also revealed that both Thompstone and Goneva have been injured. I'm sure we will have some further clarity on RL tonight, I hope!

Just what I stated yesterday, we should have 99% of the squad available for Irish!

Careful! Don't put the kybosh on things. We're playing on a plastic pitch on Friday so someone is bound to get injured :smt010

Even if fit I doubt would they start JDV on a plastic pitch with his knee injuries
