No one noticed!

He played 26 of the 27 games.

I think the "article" is basing it on injuries picked up during the year which are lengthy or ones that have lead to players coming into 2010 with injuries.

2011, yes I agree.

The Leeds list appears a little bit suspect until you consider who has compiled it and then it becomes more accurate than anyone has a right to expect.

____________

Given the criteria for inclusion was supposedly set at 'only includes players who've had at least one serious injury that have kept them out for more than a few weeks' then I guess it depends how you qualify 'more than a few weeks' but I wouldn't on that basis include Danny Buderus (never missed more than one game each absence), Jamie Jones-Buchanan (two games was his worst), Chris Clarkson (?) and Kylie Leuluai (one three game absence)

But on the other side of the coin I agree that Kevin Sinfield should probably have made it on to the list for the four game absence after the WCC.

I have just had a conversation with a fellow Rhino supporter at work
With the extra five squad members going for surgery soon, Who has not been injured this year


Excluding Bluey we couldn't come up with one who has been fit all season !!

For a large part of this season I don't think the number of injuries was the problem. As suggested already I think it was just the timing. We had a poor start to the season through our own doing anyway so were low on confidence already, then on top of that players started dropping like flies. This was the only part of the season I remember us really struggling to put out a strong 17. When we eventually got most of the squad back in the middle third of the season we were playing catch up and desperately trying to rediscover some form. When we started to look like we were doing that we had the crucial injuries to Peacock and Burgess, and latterly McGuire.

Just one of those seasons really, and in fairness we were due one.

'The Machine' came closest. Only missed one game all season and that was away at Salford in Round 23 where he was rested rather than injured.
