Now Elliot Kear is out for EIGHT rounds. WTF?

Shame, but I feel we have adequate cover in this position.

Well be interesting to see who now steps up to the plate.

Scaphoid broken, 8 weeks at least. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scaphoid_bone Chance for Ainscough or Pryce. I think it's high time the club brought in an exorcist to dispel this injury jinx.

Enter Karl Pryce to show how much he wants it i suppose - But personnaly id be going with Ainy

Do you think some contractors have buried a Leeds Rhinos shirt under the centre spot to hex us?

It was just never meant to be, was it?

This is just fekking sodding ridiculous. Some barsteward on high is really taking the pìss now.

Lets just see if those muppets on Sky can find some way of ignoring our crazy injury list this weekend, eh?

Kear
Pryce
Purtell
Walker

Olbison

Getting near a full team out eh?

I'd swap Crookes over and put Pryce outside Lulia. Platt plus Ainy or Pryce defending on the right has disaster written all over it.

this is becoming a joke now! i know all teams have injuries but WTF 5 weeks into the season and we almost have a full team of injured players? i honestly think we have a team capable of competing this season and causing a few shocks along the way, but now its looking like a write off 5 weeks in feel sorry for potter tbh what chance has he got

I agree.

Pryce outside Lulia sounds fine to me, I've been saying all along that if we had a big mean centre that can defend out wide, which I think the early signs are that Lulia can, and if Pryce thus just has to be a big blocker on the wing, defence at that side could work well enough. I'v ealso been saying that if Lulia is a proper centre that can make a space and give a winger a decent pass, then Pryce will score a hatful of tries outside him as one thing he can do is finish.

But of course one or both of them will shortly receive a 2 or 3 month injury so I suppose it's academic



If I thought there was a God, I'd be cursing him something rotten just now.



HOWEVER, and while it may make a severe dent in our season's prospects, the way i see such a crisis is
(a) a great chance for Potter to show his coaching and inspirational qualities;
(b) every injury is someone's opportunity

While the injuries may mean we lose more games, to be honest if we could play like we did against Warrington then I wouldn't mind at all.
