Clips on social media of the hookers working with a throwing coach.... :airborne:

Will see if it makes a difference!

Great news. If Ashman could sort his throwing he will be a fantastic player.

Our injury list is already looking like a car crash. Only 2 fit centres and 1 fit 10.

If it wasnt for bad luck we would have no luck at all...

Really awful luck for two new signings to be out for the full season after the first friendly!

Litterick especially will be a loss. As the direct Sebastian replacement, he'd have been pencilled in for quote a bit of pitch time. Hopefully this means we see OBL pick up some of those minutes now. That would be the best outcome long term.

Yes, it sometimes takes something like that to give a youngster a chance, hopefully OBL will be as ready as he looks. Injuries should also mean we see a bit more of Jack Brown and Lewis Wells.

Real shame for Matt Currie, but sounds like he will be out for a while and they dont really know the cause.

it may just be bad luck, but we seem to continually have an awful time with injury. I know its an attritional sport and there is a stat that something like 25% of the squad will be injured at one time, but the season has barely started we are almost at crisis point in some positions, we dont have a 10 on the bench!

Before the season really started we managed to lose 2 of our summer singings for a whole season. 2 of our 3 stand offs are out injured, our 2 arguably best centres are out, and not just short term Obvisouly Darcy is just coming back too.
