Any news on the injury front? I take it J Lo and Wilkin are back for the start of the season? What was wrong with them anyways? Walsh back a bit later, anyone else still crocked?
We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.
Everyone bar Walsh should be fit long before the start of the season, which will cause the good sort of selection headaches, especially in the backrow.
Lomax knee ligaments. Wilkins was a recurrent dislocation problem, think the op was to strengthen his ligaments around the joint.
Wilkin took the risk to play as he picked up the injury earlier in the season and was told rest couid help it and could get thru the season and have the op at the end but it went again and needed it doing earlier.
Tweet from @martinoffiah 23/08/2011: 'Must admit i did love watching Saints- Cunningham Joynt Longy Tommy then Leon, last classic RL team ever'. Even the dark side can't help but love the rebellion.
Alex Walmsley had an operation that had been put off till after the Grand Final. I know he was a bit fed up with having to stay at home over November (physio etc.) when the rest of the team were texting him pictures of themselves from the beach.
As far as I know the op went fine so shouldn't hinder his start at the new season.
