How unlucky can you get?

I doubt they are related to poor conditioning and all occurred for different reasons with Tommy's age and the toll long career has taken probably not helping in his case.

If there is a silver lining here it might force Lam to play Hasting's back in the halves though I am not holding my breath.
Why do you doubt this?

It is starting to look suspicious if you ask me.
I just think it’s too easy to jump to that conclusion. Didn’t French have next to no pre season with the club? If so he can’t be the victim of the conditioning in the off season. Gildart was injured so likewise wouldn’t have been training.

Lack of or improper conditioning can also lead to injuries.

If we had poor conditioning we would have lost alot more games this season, the player not being exhausted in the last 20 minutes won us quite a few of those first 7 games.

I would not blame the club for the mass of injuries this year but the crammed together schedule add to the fact we have played more games than most clubs in a short turn around mass injuries was always a potential outcome.

It’s Shaun Wane’s training methods that are causing us all these injuries…… :roll:

Fantastic, can't for seasons full of mind numbingly unenjoyable rugby

I suppose that's ok though as long as we win trophies

I feel sorry for those who can afford season tickets to have to put up with that all over again

Don't talk wet, this SW rugby was boring is a complete fallacy.

We play worse now.
