Told Manfredi could be out for a while, could be up to 3 months with a foot injury that he's been carrying over the last few weeks and has got worse. Hopefully it isn't too serious.

That is all we need.

He's been carrying a dislocated/broken toe over Easter. Don't think he'll be out that long but I could be wrong!

I'm sure the team will get a bagging in some quarters today but these injuries are turning this period in to a write off from a results point of view. It's a very long time since we had this many lads missing at once and it's the quality and the importance of the players that's hurting. If you're missing 10 players and they're a mixture of your best players and some squad players it's not too bad but to have Lockers, Tomkins. Williams, Bateman, Manfredi, McIlorum etc all missing at the same time really is unbelievably bad luck.

They've just got to ride it out as best they can.

True Nicky, but perhaps this will end once and for all the myriad calls to get the kids in.

We're missing 10 players from a side that has had the quality eroded from it for 5 years.

We're playing 5 teenagers today. It's no shock we're getting smashed.

Sadly it's the state of SL - this is what the powers want.

Can't believe we've had over 50 points against us so far without reply, even with all our injuries - total disaster!

62 - 0 v Wakey !

Oh dear !!!

Final score 62 - 0 says it all really

Under no circumstances is that scoreline acceptable.

I just typed something out, then deleted it. I've learned not to post when this annoyed. I'll sleep on it and join the debate tomorrow.

That's shocking.

Get rid and get the kids in................oh.

Not the end of the world, i know we'll still be up there at the end of the season. However, Matty Smith, Joel Tomkins, Lee Mossop, Tony Clubb, Dan Sarginson, Josh Charnley all in that side today. All played for England at international level. Forget about injuries and the amount of young kids in the team, the reason we lost today was because those players didn't stand up, show their experience and direct our young guys around the field, pathetic. Credit to Wakefield - brilliant performance.
