Injuries: 2010/2011 season

[Draggs]

Perhaps a thread to keep track of the overwhelming number of injuries already sustained would be useful.

Just a few-

Cardiff Blues:
Jamie Roberts (until December 2010)
Casey Laulala

Ospreys:
Ian Evans

 

[cyRil]

That is overwhelming.

 

[snoopy snoopy dog dog]

Leinster:
Leo Cullen (out since April, perhaps out 'til the end of the year)
Stan Wright (achilles tendon injued in pre-season, hopes to be back in February)
Kevin McLaughlin (shoulder injury in May, out 'til the end of the year)

 

[Seaton]

That is overwhelming.

Indeed, thankfully the Scottish sides have been spared such world war like figures

However, Johnnie Beattie remains out, still likely to miss the Autumn internationals

Ian Evans' injury isn't as serious as first thought though.

 

[Peat]

Ruan Pienaar - Should be back for Glasgow
Simon Danielli - Should be back end of October
Adam Macklin - Unknown
Declan Fitzpatrick - Should be back by december
David Pollock - Unknown, dark rumours he'll never be back

Scarlets
Morgan Stoddart (Is the man ever fit? He said he was feeling 'The fittest he ever had done', then gets injured first week of the season!)
Daffydd Jones
Daniel Evans
Richie Pugh
Gavin Quinnell
Lee Williams

Unfortunate for the Scarlets, missing both fullbacks.
Fenby is a decent winger but not so much a fullback.

Didn't know Gav was injured. He is in their Heineken Cup squad, I believe, and also played for Llanelli RFC last week.

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Ye correct Draggs Gav played for Llanelli RFC!

 

[Draggs]

Imagine him and Eifion in a scrum or maul together...
A few lads who like the buffet, eh?

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Gav would be playing at a higher level if he ever decided to stay off the buffets, personally I see no problem with Eifion, he is fit enough, probably that Under Armour cannot fit him into one of their shirts!

At the end of the 2008 autumn tests, I believe, he was set targets by Gatland and crew. I'd image he made them as he was in the 2010 6N squad, but he did not appear.
Bring him on with 20 to go and kill whats left of the opposition scrum (after Adam and Gethin have had a go). On one of his very first scrums against Canada, in 2008, he helped win a penalty try for Wales, gotta give him credit.

As I see it ... if they can get Adam Jones to look trimmer then they can easily get Eifion to!

Never knew Quinnell was injured either.

Serious incident by the sounds of it.
