Walker will be great for us long term if he can stay fit.

Agreed, some people are far too quick to overhype and talk young players up when they have a good game and write them off after a bad game.

Thanks bud. I’d be surprised if Newman that quick though after re-injuring same hamstring. Bad bad injury in RL.
Nightmare to get fully right.

Can't believe Newman out injured again. He really makes a difference to us when he's on the field as gives us real punch out wide.. fingers crossed this is the last injury for the lad this season.

He was great at Wakey but was it too soon? Rushed back?

I said it when he injured his hamstring last week that he might need an op that could likely keep him out for 10 to 12 weeks.
Maybe had they done that first time round he would be back soon.
Similar to Phillips at LU.

That kind of injury often repairs itself. Not sure about the ethics of sending an employee for surgery that may not be needed.

I dont think it was a bad tear either just a strain.

Problem with hamstrings is they can feel fine after few weeks, then a 20 stone Fifita jumps on you, and can it’s game over!

Sky reporting it as a dead leg was very odd.
