[QUOTE="will311293, post: 1058927, member: 73664"] We have now lost Spink for 3/4 months and Frost 4-6 weeks... we really can't catch a break. The worst thing about it is that they are all match injuries. Odogwu, Willis, Barbeary, Mills, Launchbury, Vukasonvic last year and West/Atkinson (preseason). This year alone Gaskell, Frost, Spink, Fekitoa, Alo and Cruse have all been injured in matches with Minozzi and Miller in training. This injury crisis is insane.. So sounds like we will rotate heavily and use a lot of second string players as Umaga and Willis have played every minute of 4 matches and Robson, Fifita, Stooke, Shields, Watson and Bassett having played in every game and Hislop (3 games). Moreover, to quote Blackett, [I]"We will announce a couple of other trialists," "Some young guys wanting to play Premiership rugby. We will give them an opportunity. There will be a few trialisits coming in, I wouldn't imagine too many signings coming our way, just guys trying to get us through this difficult period."[/I] Therefore, sounds like we will be announcing a few more short term loans. Anyone got any squad players needing game time? Currently i'm looking at a line up of Harris, Harrison, Scholtz, Des Chaves, Cardall, Curran, Morris, Carr, Hougaard, Gopps, Le Booj, Simmonds, Kilbrige, Mehson, Crossdale (Bench: West, Cruse, Edgar Millar-Mills), Fifita, Young, Porter, Umaga, McHenry) That's about all we have. The only other players we have floating about the club who are those 8 who have played all the games are Woolstenholme (Scrum Half) and Alo? (Who I think is injured) Anderson (cover most back positions bar scrum-half/fly-half) Help? [/QUOTE]
