He was down brook. He works in Dubai and his lad is a monster!

It's stupid to blame conditioning on players injury's this season?

Walsh Broken leg how is that the clubs fault
Lomax Knee ligaments no fault of the club
Amour twisted his knee in a tackle just unlucky?? etc
Wilkin Dislocated Shoulder not clubs fault
Apart from Wheeler who gets every injury going they are all differant

If everyone had pulled muscles then you'd have to question something?

Stop looking for someone to blame and realise thats sport?

Conditioning to me is the whole skeletal, bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments to make them resistant to impacts directional forces etc. If its not balanced in the correct way the nature of the sport will find a weakness. There is aso conditioned recovery phases from weekly knocks and bruises to consider as well to carry over to the next game.
Some of it is also technique how to apply leverage and stop momentum.
For me we don,t look effecient and conditionally fit in this department that might explain sometimes why we can't play for 80 mins because the players becomes over stressed then "the head" starts to go out of focus.

(Walsh's injury aside) I think you have to accept that proper training can strengthen your joints as well as your muscles. Weight training even increases your bone density to a degree.
I'm not blaming the conditioning staff for any of the above, but neither should we dismiss the thought that our guys could be possibly be more robust.
It does seem like we've suffered much more from injuries since Apollo has left, but I'm pretty sure there are fans from other teams who'll quote a similar sized injury record from their squad.

Another way to look at it is this -
Do we look like the fittest, strongest squad in the league?
Do we have one of, if not the lowest instance of player injury?

If the answer to the above is no, then chances are we don't have the BEST conditioning set up in the league. If we want to be the best team, then everything in place has to be as high quality as possible.

Travis to Saints for £100k is already a done deal, and will be announced when Hull KR's season is over...cant say where I have been told this from, but to quote Stevo "I would bet the house on it"

Living in Wakefield you can keep your house

Apollo and his two sons were sat behind us in an exec. box at the last home game. I was thinking at the time what a loss he was(thanks to Potter) as injuries seem to be escalating every season.

According to an ex Rovers player (who got it from Rovers chairman), they won't let Burns go until they have a replacement signed, maybe they had someone lined up and it has now fell through.

There is an announcement at 6PM tonight for a RL signing, maybe it will be Burns.

Ignore the last point it's Clarke signing for Warrington

They probably got it from the hkr forum.

He was spotted with the saints physio team today (in tesco, to be precise). There has been no change. As has been stated on this thread, it's a done deal, and will be announced after hkrs season is over.

I don't get that. They should just announce it because everyone knows anyway!

We all assume that he's signed, he may well have not.
It's up to the club to put the record straight.

It could be part of the deal, HKR wont want to announce it til the end of their season as its not what their fans will want to hear
