FB site saying Field’s done his knee in training, no idea if genuine

I've read some people saying he has done his knee in training and is out for a month and others saying that he isn't playing tonight but not due to injury. Those latter people are saying it's because they're looking after him on his road back from the hamstring injury and with games in such close proximity they didn't want to risk him and that he will return against Leeds on Saturday.

I hope it's the latter but after the French rumour proved true, who knows?

EDIT - Also, based on the noises the club have made, we haven't really trained much at all between Thursday and tonight so I guess that would reduce the likelihood of him getting injured.

IF it's true we're in trouble ! Shows how wrong I was

Even if there is no new injury, it makes perfect sense for him to sit out the game tonight.

Matt Shaw has confirmed it’s not a new injury and he’ll be back against Leeds.

If he does play on Saturday then the coaching team have played a blinder, to cooly rest him tonight and come away with a big win....nice

He is not injured and will definitely play n Saturday. Forber is available as well.

Zac is a top player. Hopefully, the Club has tied him down for a long period.

Surely he will replace Keighran next year?

I recall Keighran signing a 2 year deal - Is there a 1 year in the clubs favour?

Maybe its too early for Zack to be our starting centre, so if we could keep Keighran for 1 more year that would be great, but not at the expense of risking losing Zack.

I think he will take that centre birth in 2026 however he will have to keep earning that right.

Keighran signed for 2 years and the shirt is rightfully his at the moment he will also still only be 28/29 at the start of the 2026 season so will still have plenty of rugby left in him and still be in what should be his career prime.

What goes with his age though will be an expectation of one last big contract and the fact he is on quota which goes against him.

If Eckersley continues like he is though whilst being a tough call to let a centre in Keighran go to accommodate him I’m sure they will make it. I think too it will depend on Miski, I can maybe see ZE taking Miski’s shirt in 2025 which if he does could see him settle there for a further year or 2 before he settles in the centre and he’d still only be 22/23.

Next year….and rest of this with his ability to play wing, centre and fullback he will still get plenty of opportunities to play and continue to develop in the match day 17.

Did Miski not sign a 4 year contract earlier this year? so think talk of ZE taking his shirt for next season are probably a bit premature?

There's no doubt Miski has been carrying an injury throughout most of this season, and tuesday night seemed to be the 1st time we've seen him playing full on and really making good yards with the ball, especially coming out of our won 20m area

Signed till end of 2027. I just think ZE has more chance of displacing Miski than he does Keighran in the short term.

I don't think it was a coincidence that this coincided with Keighran running the ball out more aggressively too. He even got an offload away. Much more a "Toby King" style of performance.
