Rumours that we have picked up a broken arm post game, wont mention the player in case not true

Sam Barlow posted he was having an x Ray today on facebook

Said he'd been in A&E for 4 hours and they still couldn't decide if it was broken or not.

Not broken was at Fax 2day and a couple of his mates told me.

Was it a good game Frank?

Fax are a very good side and played really well. Their scrum half was the man of the match for me and their pack was very impressive. With only 5 mins 2 go I thought they might have won but it was not 2 be.

Widnes fans I spoke to after the game agreed.

Any news on the injuries the lads picked up on sadurday.?

If the jungle drums are correct Hoppy, Sam and Hock are out

Would be bad news, although Acton, Spencer, Sarsfield, Haggerty & Aspinwall will be itching to get a game.

If Sam (Barlow) and Hock do miss the game, that would curb some of our free-flowing play and maybe lead to a more cautious approach.

Just seen hoppo he definitely not playing Sunday

The Watcher believes that Hock is out for 4 weeks after an operation

That would be real bad luck if all 3 were out, hock been brilliant last 6/7 weeks (yes I am praising hock) at least we have the Wembley break which should help

Barlow s arm isn't broken

He must have done some damage to it. He looked in agony when it happened. Oh well.

It looked more like his shoulder popped out and back in to me.
