Injuries

Post by Wigan_forever1985 »

Who's on the injury list now and what is their expected return?

Joel was a late withdrawal after the warm up. Callum Field replaced him.
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Joel T, Forsyth - unknown length, pulled up or went off last night
Woods - not seen timeframe mentioned yet but didn't play 19s last night I don't think
Gildart - couple of weeks maybe?
Sam T, Bateman - June sometime
Clubb - June/July? back in training
Bretherton - July?
Gelling - nothing announced, July/August?? total guess
Manfredi - August?
Flower - season ended?
Shorrocks, Escare - out for season

I can only assume it's selection with Navarrete as I haven't seen him reported as injured. Everyone else who has featured this year was in the 19 for Saints, played for u19s last night, or is out on loan...I think.

I would expect Batty and Sam to be back for the cup-tie. According to Josie Brethy was only side-lined for two weeks,
I think I read somewhere that's Gells was out for six weeks and therefore should be available for the Wire game. Oli I thought was end of June. Who the bloody hell knows though!

When Wane announced the Bretherton injury it was on BBC Radio Manc and he said he would be out for two months. Maybe that's changed, I think Josie spoke to him at Swinton and when he walked past me I must admin I couldn't tell there was anything up with him! We are a prop/middle light in the currently fit squad I feel, so the sooner the better.

We are no different from all other SL when it comes to injuries all clubs get them.

So if all sides gets injuries and use along the line of the same number of players in the squad why are we so far off the pace of the top 4 sides.

Because Waney only has the one gameplan and it goes tit's up when over half the team are injured?
Let's is a contraction of “let us.” You use it to make suggestions about what you and someone else should do. Let's is NOT a promise

Ok but it does not stop other sides after all injuries happen to all sides and their plan does not go tits up through injuries. Injuries should not be used as an excuse anymore since its been going on since 2013.

Not disagreeing but been told on here that all sides have had injuries all season and there is no pattern to ours apparently. So pop quiz if Cas, Salford and Leeds play fairly strong sides week in week out what are we doing wrong then. After all does luck balance out eventually and ours on injuries is going since 2013.
