| Anyone know when some of the players are due back?
I know Tomkins is May, but Williams and Gelling would be a massive boost to have back sooner rather than later.

| Beware of the thought police.
I asked the same question a few weeks back and got shot down. Ive reported a few mods on this particular forum to the Admin staff.
Anyway, Ive never known as much secrecy from the club surrounding injured players. Last we heard on Williams was he pulled up in the warm up a month ago and was taken out for a precaution. He's not been heard of since. S Tomkins is a mystery. Whenever he's asked he is always two months away. Ive a feeling we will get to September and he'll still be two months away. Hope he comes back to his best but the way this injury is going ive a feeling he will be the next Jonny Lomax.

You got shot down because there was little if any substance in what was quite simply a post to generate issues where there weren't any and imo was a poop stirring attempt.
Your latest attempt on that same Tomkins subject is again complete nonsense.
When in the past was he asked and he said 2 months?
When recently as he said again 2months?
I'll bet the answer is he hasn't?
He was interviewed on sky in JANUARY and he said May.
You were told this on the last thread yet you continue to spout nonsense with no evidence.
As for speculating about him becoming the next jonny lomax then I'll consign that statement to the rubbish bin like most of the others.
He's had one op, he's given a date when he'll be back, what evidence do you have for this being a longer term issue?

Gelling was in south stand bar on Friday and said 3 weeks after being assessed mid week.

You sure?
I'm sure as he woke up on the operating table his first words were "2 months"?

You want some ketchup to go with that chip?

Jukesays.
In the lead up to the match on Friday on Sky I thought I heard Wiggy say Sam was about a couple of months away, it was about 7-45 when I thought I heard him say it.
May is only 4 weeks away and there have been no reports or sightings of Sam any where near a pitch.

Couple of points
1 Do you really listen to anything Wiggy or any of the sky muppets say?
2 beginning of may is 4 weeks away, end of may is 8/9 weeks away.

| Wane said Bateman, Flower and possibly Crosby are back for Wakey but no mention of the others. The big one for me is Williams. We need him back ASAP because Smith is sinking on his own and with Lockers potentially being out we'll be looking at a halfback pairing of Gregson and Smith.

| Williams isn't responding to treatment as expected and the club are a bit worried he will need a major operation which could rule him out for a long part of the season if not the full season.
Tomkins wont be rushed, I think it will be mid-late May before he returns. No point rushing him and he breaks down. Just get him right for the business end

| If Williams is going to be out for a extended period and Lockers is also out, I don't understand why we don't recall Hampshire, if only temporarily? Seem strange that Wane is even contemplating playing a rookie back rower at stand off.

| And if it was not for injuries Gregson would not even be the fifth choice as starting stand off, but he is. Having said that he looked dangerous for twenty minutes, when O'loughlin went off, until we ran out of steam and he cannot be blamed for that. If anybody is sad enough to care Gregson would have been behind Williams, Powell, Hampshire, O'loughlin, Shorrocks (is there any news on his injury?) , as starting stand off. He is not a big lad for a second row and in some ways resembles Powell. I would not be surprised if he ended up hooking.

| So if Gregson is behind Hampshire, why don't we bring Hampshire back? You never know, it could work! But if not, what have we lost?

Because he's implicated in a swap deal with Justin Carney for 2017.
