injury update : Mon Feb 23, 2009 1:36 pm  

It was worrying to see Robinson and Williamson leave the pitch injured yesterday. Has anyone heard anything about them as we will need a full strength team against the pies.

Don't think we need a full strength team to beat the Pies - but it would be nice.

I think we need them both for the pies hope Robinson and Williamson are ok

I thought they made a big difference at Cas and again in the first half yesterday. Two very good signings and we'll suffer if they're both out at the same time.

Rammo was talking to Mac on the Radio,when i was in the car on the way home after the game. He was asked about injuries, Mac didnt say anything about Robinson(but was odd didnt see him back), Shapr didnt come back due to hurting his back. He was laughing at Williamson doing the splits as never seen a rugby player do that before(well not a forward), but he said it was a hamstring niggle and they will have a look today at it if it was bad or just minor.

But the worse news was that Purds, they think he might have a done Rib Cartlidge.

So if is bad news for both of them we could go into Wigan game down on them two, plus Haggerty, not sure when Hecks back,but if hes back for Wigan game then you have to think hes not match fit.

and being all Doom and Gloom (sorry) as dont no about Robinson,could that mean we could be without our first choice 2nd row and LF for this game.

Yes, I can confirm what Mc said about Purdo. I was on duty at the Skolars so I missed the match, boo-hoo, but how did the fringe players go? : Golden, Grayshon, Mbu etc, we may need these replacements sooner rather than later. I think Gale could play LF at a pinch he could replace that flair that will be lost with Prdo being out.

The Radio London programme was excellent, well done Rammo and the gang.

I saw Robinson leaving the Stoop and he said he was fine.

Great! I think the guy is a quality signing. Not the sort of flash name that the pies like to sign (and regret) but a quality player who gives 100% each week. Thats why BM signed him If anyone listened to Wellsy with Rammo after the Cas game he picked him out as a stand out performer in that game. Unless you like to watch the players who are making the big defensive hits you miss the impact of the Robinsons of this world much as newoccasional fans would always be impressed by the 'Offia' type players but not notice the Steele Retchesless.
Disapointed if either Purds or Williamson is out, but I gues Gale might cover for Purdo as he seems to have a lot of energy and he can kick. Cant think of someone who comes near Williamsons all round quality. Fingers crossed for them both.

Anybody got an update on the injuries.

I would think Big mac would keep his side for the pies very quiet. Nobby is under pressure why give him time to not guess the side he and the pies face.
