[QUOTE="Arcturus, post: 1105417, member: 85747"] I looked into this in more detail; England Rugby produce an annual review called the Rugby Injury Surveillance Project, for the 2020-21 season they state that there were: [LIST] [*]84 injuries per 1,000hrs on turf/hybrid pitches [*]85 injuries per 1,000hrs on artificial pitches [/LIST] If there was a dramatic increase in injuries sustained on artificial pitches you would expect the likes of Saracens, Newcastle and Gloucester to be hammered with most of their squad out of action; that simply isn't the case.
