Quote: Nogga "No imo. It is frustrating when you hear a player has picked up an injury in training but surely you have to trust our coaches and backroom staff (I believe we spend more on our backroom staff than any other club).
Wane, Deacon, Bitcon, the physios, sports scientists etc will study our training non-stop and in particular the effect it has on game day. Ultimately you've got to trust them, why would they do anything in training which negatively effects the team on game day? I remember last season when we had an injury crisis and Wane said how they'd looked into the training in detail and could see no correlation between training and the injuries the players had picked up.'"
I think we have the sports science on one side and Wane's World on the other. They play full contact training games regularly and I know last season we picked up at least two injuries in these games and it was probably more.
These injuries were a regular occurrence and if its not the full contact training they are doing something else wrong despite all the science.
