Sia also had op and played last few month at 70% fitness

Last report on Walsh was that he expects to be back in January and ready for the start of the season.

I think it's Lomax who isn't going to make the start of the season. From what someone has said on RedVee, he's still got 12 weeks of rehab to go.

January? I'm pretty sure Walsh is due back later this month.

Lomax will be fit for the start, barring complications. He won't have much of a pre season though.

That's an amazing recovery for Walsh when you consider what his ankle looked like in that game. I thought he'd never walk again never mind play.

Lomax has tweeted that he's been rehabbing in the gym (whilst everyone else has been away) and was glad to see people coming back. Sounded like he was making decent progress.

Don't forget, Roby has also had to have an operation, hasn't he?

Dread to see our medical bills

And Walmsley

Walsh will miss a lot of pre season, I can't see him doing anything at all until at least January. He'll just be working in rehab from Novemeber onwards.

Walmsley should be okay after Christmas I believe and Roby's op was just a small one so he shouldn't be too long out.

I thought he said January. Oh well. Whatever, it looks like he has a good chance of starting the season anyway!

Claim it on the health insurance. Not sure who saints deal with or where the players go for ops.

Walk- in- Centre don't they Wheeler has a private car space.

Think it's rainford at Fairfield.

is that bupa?

If you were bupa would you take on the insurance for any Saints player? I'd run a mile.

Not sure mate. I went there for a op but it was private and was recommended to me by a saints player.
