The Injury curse has hit us again this year...

[Tigersman]

First we lost Tim Moltzen then Dene Halatau then Curtis Sironen All before Round 1, then Fulton who came back then got knocked out then came back again then got knocked out again and then came back and is now in serious doubt for the match against the Eels,then Sauaso Sue, Then James Tedesco and Robbie Farah 1 week from each other. How can we have so many ''Freak'' Injuries it's not possible. 7 First grade players out and it's only round 7\. :brick:

There is an upside in about one month all will be on deck,it is frustrating when the team is performing well takes that edge away. I am very excited from around round 12 it should be a great ride!

Maybe we will do our usually thing and string 6-8 in a row late in the year. Thank god for our depth this year if we had the same depth last year we wouldn't of come 15th.

we are coping though…

the bench forwards this year are the difference.. we are competitive for the full 80 instead of for 40-50..if we lost a few of the big guys i think we'd be in trouble.

Agree. It's hit us hard in previous years when we have lost Galloway or Woods for extended periods . This year we have great forward depth and our injuries have mainly been 2nd rowers.
Fulton, Sue, Sironen, Halatau all seconds rowers to come back soonish.
The State Cup players are also hitting some good form.
And atm no forwards deserve to be dropped from 1st grade.

We will have selection headaches when everyone is back and fit.
