Looked liked broken ribs to me. He seemed to be in a fair bit of pain, too.

Agreed or worse still rib cartilage. Not good.

Great more injuries dowes and hall have fallen tonight at this rate we will be playing the u21s in a few weeks!

I know. Could tell he'd broken/damaged the rib area as soon as the tackle is made. It's better for him if it's a break rather than soft-tissue damage though.

If O'Meley isn't fit next week, we'll probably just see Lauaki move to prop, as Tickle will be back, luckily.

At least they might have a bit of enthusiasm

Yeh and they have a scrum half

I didn't know hall was injured. I just assumed that he'd been taken off because he's cra[size.[/sizep?


Also, when you say 'play u21's', do you mean leave them on the bench for 80 mins?

Sam limping desperately at the end too.

It's why we have a squad.

yeh we would have to loan in 13 players first between the ages of 30-65 then put the kids on the bench then not use them

I shouldn't have laughed at that. But I did. I've had beers.

He's not crap, he's just not a SL player. He'd be great in the championship.

Not many left now, though.

We have Lyne, Tuffour, Kent and Jack Briscoe who have been on full time training this year.

Cunningham and Nicklas with first team experience.

does anyone know when we have some of the injured players returning, never know the young kids might bring some energy to the team, which happened at wigan a few seasons ago
