| I remember an old "Programme Note" of Brian Johnson's, from the night of the LCC SF against the Wids in 89 (what a game), in which he says
"I don't use injuries as an excuse. They are a fact of life", and these were the days when teams regularly played Sunday/Wednesday throughout the season, as we had a 16 team league, LCC, Regal Trophy, CC and Premiership (all with replays if needed), as well as a fuller International programme.
Me thinks TS is getting his excuses in early. Quick turn rounds do hinder, but can also work to your advantage. That's the way the mop flops. This week's hinders. I'm sure we've benefitted MANY times when playing on a Friday, and our next game is the following Sunday (or even Monday, a year or two ago).
I'm afraid this week, we have to "suck it".

| It is very noticeable when Harrison is not on the pitch. We miss his physical presence and work rate. One of our best defenders for sure.

| You can tell what the extent of our injury crisis is by the amount of times Eddie Hemmings mentions it on Friday. If he barely mentions it, then it's not a crisis and we just have to carry on regardless. If it's mentioned every 5-10 minutes, then we know it's a proper crisis and up in the bracket with Wigan or his beloved Saints whenever they have injuries.

| I think the squad was missing managed leading into this season. In particular the pack. As far back as last July we knew GRIX would be missing for the first 20 rounds of this year. And then to not even attempt to replace Paul Wood made things worse. Throw in players with injury records like Ben Evans and the Asotasi factor and ypu know players like Hill, Sims,Currie will have to do big minutes and won't be rested. The annoying thing is that there were players available to cover the gaps.

| Monaghan and lineham won't both be wings. None of them are going to start playing on the left when they are both right wingers.
