Looking at this makes me wonder how many black cats these guys run over!! The injury list the last 2 years has been quite unbelievable! Of course lots more we could’ve done in games to win despite this and there is an issue with our style and culture. But holy f!!

Young and Hodgson named in reserves this week.

Both wingers still without return dates, week to week it seems.

Injured or not injured he hasn’t played this season and no foot injury should take this long to heal with the expert? medical staff and facilities available and he is sitting on his bum and getting paid good dollars to do so while we struggle to compete with back up players.
it all seems a bit strange
 
I understand that medical conditions can be tricky in treatment and recovery but Lee would be different from most people suffering similar type injuries. His condition, was it ever fully explained, would have come under immediate repair and medical supervision, he would have been checked often, at least several times a week, if he had a problem, pain etc, no queueing up to see the Doctor, in immediately, scans, X-rays etc. He is a trained athlete who depends on his ability to play to earn his salary, now and future. It does not make sense that he continues to have problems over a long period of time without possibly being medically discharged from contract. If he continues to have problems then he is either not following medical advice or his contract should be terminated on medical grounds.
I think he has been a very good player for us admittedly not often enough due to injury
 
A lot of intricate bones and ligaments in the foot and incredibly hard to rest, putting a time frame on a diagnosis is almost impossible, but reinjury is a fairly regular occurrence.
Although Lee was supposed to have returned from injury...I’ve heard that Adam is holding off on Lees return because we aren’t resigning him?

I remember Robbie O'Davis spent a season out with a broken foot from running on the beach. Did return to full fitness and played most of the next season though. Sometimes these things happen and the foot does seem to be a very niggly area when it goes wrong.
