What's the numbers on this? What are the injuries? Who was injured? What is their track record with injuries? How were these players injured?
If I remember rightly, wasn't pretty much every first team player out at some point last season? Like you say, there could well be a massive element of bad luck in this, as it is a contact sport at the end of the day, but there could well be issues with the fitness and conditioning.
I could well be wrong, as I don't get to see the amount of games most people on here do, but we just don't like as well conditioned as we have in the past. Fair bit of lumber on some players, lack of speed and we also seem to be struggling badly come the 60th minute. Against Catalans we looked dead on our feet in particular.
Just my opinion, and I could well be wrong.
