Re: Injuries
I think players now have to look after themselves better. Eat better, very little alcohol and generally good habits.
I think the days are over for nightclubs during the season unless you are happy being a player at lower achieving clubs. It's a mental state that should run through the club.
Lolohea and merrin may be very good players but you shouldn't be carrying a lot of extra weight.

Coke is classed as a stimulant, which can be seen as a performance enhancer. But that's not what I'm getting at. My point is, coke is pretty rife in Rugby League, so what are the chances of steroids/growth etc.
My point with lower division teams is, more and more players are copping bans for steroids. You’d have to imagine the demands of part time rugby and a full time job are a lot for the body to take, so players are taking shortcuts to aid themselves. Must be hard playing on a Sunday to then get up early dawn Monday morning to do a 12 hour shift. You can’t tell me that it’s not happening in SL. Now I’m not for one minute saying Cas do this, but you only have to look at some players across the league to see the effects that the growth hormone causes…

Re: Injuries
I would guess a high proportion of any players doing these types of drugs/steroids your talking about tend to get caught. I don't really care what other players are doing....I'm only interested in what ours are doing and this subject is about injuries...not drug-taking...hence why I don't like speculation and guesswork dragging another topic down.heritage1926 wrote:Fryston Tiger wrote:Just shot your own arguement in the foot.....heritage1926 wrote:Naive from you then.

Re: Injuries
So Matt Cook in for Clark against Broncos. No other changes needed. Let's hope no major injuries are suffered though.

I wouldn't mind putting O'Neil on bench to give Macca w rest when needed. Going to be a long season ahead for Macca. Would mean Roberts or somebody misses out though.
Re: Injuries
Milner and Roberts can both cover dummy half if needs be. But your right I wouldnt mind seeing the odd youngster in now to get a taste rather than thrown in when we are desperate
Re: Injuries
The sports science team need to step up. Hamstring injuries result from overload. Adequate monitoring is essential.Meeks was n't unlucky to pick up a pull in the closing minutes of training. No lessons appear to have been learnt from last season under Ben Coopers watch.

Re: Injuries
Gales wage isn't covered by insurance, we still have to pay him. so if we bring in a replacement we have to pay him, it just doesn't count on the cap.pomfretian wrote:Is Gale's wage covered 100% by an insurance policy? Meaning we are able to use his money to pay someone else through the salary cap dispensation? If so that's a lot of money to get 1 or 2 players to cover the injuries.
Or do we still have to pay Gale's wages but can go over the cap and pay another player?

Re: Injuries
he did do 80 once although it wasn't planned. example given was he can easily do 50 minutes before being spelled (with great work stats) where others usually only manage 25 before needing a rest.

Ealing had a 3G artificial pitch installed in 2014... If it's the same one that's there now, let's hope we come through unscathed..!
