It's pretty straight forward and all clubs and players initially try to "run off" a knock before coming off.
With Watkins it wasn't his knee at first he was pointing to his ankle and was happy to try and run it off and was unfortunate to end up getting the knee injury.
The case with Sinfield is also straight forward he got the initial bang on the thigh and he himself wasved the doc away after the 1st visit sods law shows he got a heavy kick in exactly the same spot.
i think we are just getting "our turn" in the long term injuries at the moment and don't think that any could of been prevented by the staff.

Seen as you just said "Lifes a risk, rugby league even more so" then yeah

Are you seriously saying leaving Sinfield and Watkins out on the field when they are in visible discomfort is not a risk?

Don't recall Jones-Bishop please

Do try and keep up, that suggestion is laughable.... remember.

So who is out for this friday?

We're healthy apart from Chev I think, not that it makes much difference at the minute

long term

ablett
donald
Eastwood
watkins

sinfield short term(week to week assesment)

potentially out after post match fans views and club comments

Bailey
webb
hall
buderus
delaney

It’s been a while but if I take my boots down to Kirkstall tomorrow do ya reckon I could get a game?

As long as you wear "the hat" and take cake for Kylie

Could recalling BJB have an impact on the Salary Cap?
I have no idea how close we are to the limit and appreciate he would not be one of the top earners but otherwise i will be surprised if he isn't recalled this week. We have Donald and Watkins out for sometime and a question mark over Hall. Playing every week at Quins is better than playing in our reserves but surely he would be in our 17 for the next couple on months at least.

Is Webb injured too?

By the sounds of it Webb along with Hall, Delaney, Buderus and Bailey are all carrying injuries of some description .
That lot coupled with our long term injuries to Donald, Watkins, Ablett and Eastwood should give you a half decent chance of a win.
I`m sure after playing on our Headingley Beach Friday there could be a few more players that will be added to that list.

IF we were close to the cap i would think the club will / would look at de registering Kalum as he is out for the season. personnally i would give Coady and Amor a go and see how they go. Deffo bring back Jones Bishop.
