So as much as a nightmare as this injury toll has been. Is it possible for this to work in our favour at the back end of the season?
Most of the injuries seem to be in the 6-12 week bracket (aside from Lawrence who should apparently be back in in July).
Everyone knows you don't want to be peaking early. If we can
get close to a full strength team on deck by around rounds 12-18, I reckon we can start building nicely for a late charge home. If all injuires heal well, half our team is gonna be fresh at the back end.
Of course this all depends on us managing to hover around the 8 in the meantime, but I reckon we've got the depth to do that. Anyway just trying to find a positive out of all this.
