Looking forward to a good game and a decent crowd.

Hope the weather stays fine.

We seem to have no injury worries apart from Pitts maybe.

Pitts is OK, "nothing serious", according to Jimmy on his after match interview from Widnes.

"It's just a flesh wound".

Now, where have I heard that before?

Forgetting about Clough and Kavanagh which shows how much stronger we are in the pack. Anyone heard anything on Kavangh. Hope it's not season ending as he impressed in pre-season.

on prematch buildup on bcb, Jimmy was asked about Williams and Clough and said they were both progressing but no where near returning. So sounds like their still a few weeks away. Have they actually said what Kavanaghs injury was?

I think if we were at full strength Clough, Kavanagh and Williams would all be in the 17.
Pitts has been rock climbing with the rest of the squad today so I guess he's fine.

ROCK CLIMBING? Ye gods.......Wrapped in cotton wool, one might hope?

We don't publicise injuries at all. I have no idea what's up with Clough, Williams, Crossley, Mendieka, Kavanagh or how long they will be out

Sorry I went keyboard drunk - been winding up Leeds fans too by the looks of things.

Despite this, I feel we're in better shape than Leigh at the moment.

I agree with you there. There's nothing wrong with our back up strength, but we appear totally disjointed with so many changes - especially with the likes of Smith & Whiting having to settle straight into the team. Both excellent players, but they haven't even had time to learn the language yet - never mind the plays!

Hey binosh. Hope you have a better day at nursery tomorrow.. dont forget teachers apple

Has the privacy element disappeared from health matters, then? Do we all want our personal health to be discussed openly in the media [I accept there are differing levels of public interest - or prurience..]. Surely, employers are expected to keep private any details they may have of employees and are responsible for any leaks? Aren't the Bulls just a good employer for safeguarding the personal health matters of their employees?

I mean, I recognise the way the health service is going, and pretty soon, within minutes of visiting the Doc, we'll all be getting 'targetted' adverts about which private company can treat our condition best but let's keep it decent as long as we can, eh?

I don't get that, I (partly) pay the wages to the team I support, and since time immemorial, I have felt entitled to a bulletin such as, "he's done a cruciate ligament, will have an op and be out for 6 months", or "he's sprained a shoulder, should be fit in a week". Of the hundreds of thousands, or maybe millions, of such bulletins issued over the decades, by sports clubs of all kinds worldwide, daily, I'd say it's fair enough, and why on earth would a player object? If I were a player, I'd positively want my fans to know the basic facts. Many players openly state stuff on social media. If any given player did object, then the club could say we can't disclose any details for reasons of confidentiality but that would happen one in a thousand or less.

I want to be updated not least because sometimes the injury sounds absolutely bonkers. Who else can remember Withers having a "Misaligned pelvis". What the hell is that?
