DP said something along the lines that the clubs needs change, injuries, players not playing enough means there's chance for replacements. Pretty sensible stuff. The opportunity to sign a good player would be hard to miss if you know someone is retiring or speaks to his agent and is getting stale and needs a bigger bank balance

Powell very impressed with D.R in the piece I've just read
Looking forward to seeing him and Truey don't think there be many better half back duos around in SL

I’m looking forward to the Trudy/Richardson combination as this might just turn into a great partnership hopefully in the mould of the Hardisty/Hepworth combination that rattled many a defence ! Here’s Hoping !

New poster the squad is better then last years but don't think we have strengthened as good as teams who we will be competing against us for any major honours in the league . We should do better in set plays when attacking opponents line and get away from safe rugby one man drive and a kick now we have signed a proper half back . My worries we probably could do with another barn storming prop to compliment watts , and we are also looking a bit flat footed lack off real pace in the centres . I will predict finish about fourth to six area off league table and with some luck in challenge cup draw because were not had any a late good run in the cup maybe a final at Wembley in sunny July would be good.

Was training with some of the injured players on Instagram. Moors, Foster and someone else who I cant remember, In a room with a gravity treadmill.

I look on other teams forums I can't recall there being such a problem with other teams players getting injured in training
It stated back end of 2018 and as just carried on ever since ...

Seriously how much would it cost for a decent physio that can advise on training routines and how far to push players. £50/£60k? Compare that to spending £1.6ish million on player wages it seems ridiculous that this is happening.

Ok I appreciate accidents and unforseen things happen. But something surely isn't right when you compare against other teams

A hamstring injury in training has got to be ringing alarm bells, especially if it’s torn.
Sure, you might pick up the odd strain or pull. But we shouldn’t be seeing injuries like hamstring tears and Achilles ruptures in training.
