Quote: Stu M "Both are struggling and probably wouldn't have played the last couple of games were it not for our injuries. Dodd has been struggling with a hamstring and Lees with his ribs. Wouldn't surprise me if at least one if not both didn't play on Friday.
Walmsley was always 4 weeks from his injury which falls this weekend so timing wise its pretty spot on. Last week would have been too early, he's only trained this week.'"
No issue with Walmsley, Makinson etc. I just can’t buy the yearly pull outs, only for them to turn out the following weekend being a coincidence. Has Lomax made a miracle recovery as well?
Let’s be honest here, Saints as a club see this as a mid season break and have done since Woolf came in. I hoped it would end under an ex England international and assistant coach but sadly not.
