We're done for

[t10do]

Indeed, but someone said 17 injuries this year? Similar last year and the year before... Either your players are built like girl scouts or they are doing something wrong.

we had injuries last year, but not to this extent. but i am not going to sit here and say that that is the WHOLE reason why we are having the season we are having. just wanted to make the point that it doesn't solely come down to guys in charge of fitness regimes. if it was the case, trust me, there would be legal across within every nrl team. are we doing something wrong....yes we are.are we a fringe side at the moment..............yes we are. that's that.

souths are a fringe side. PERIOD.

Funny, couldve sworn Dragons only put two tries on said 'fringe side'. Must be a pretty good 'fringe side'. Either that or Dragons simply fail to step up against weaker opponents.

Or fringe sides step up against the bench mark.

Not saying your conditioning staff is shit, but every dragons supporter has noticed the difference of replacing an ex player with a tafe degree with a professional. If it happens again next year with the same staff, surely has to be something to look at.

Erol is not to blame for injuries. He can't run out onto the field and put a pillow down every time somebody falls over. I would have thought his job was to get the players fit and help with the rehab on the injured players to get them back on the park.

Panthers are pretty ordinary this year but you guys are no better and both teams have injury and coaching issues. We'll see how you go with your new coach in 2012.

 

[haha]

Bad luck? Its happened the last 3 years. Surely must be realising its simply more than "bad luck". Saints were always injured when we had mcgregor as ours once he finished his tafe course, but Hickmans has shown what a professional can do.

Cricketers bodies are the same as rugby league players.... good on BM.

I agree, I think you guys also had David Boyle when you struggled with injuries.
The fact that most of our injuries have been to our forwards over the last Two seasons makes me think something is not right with our conditioning.

what team goes well with 17 players sidelined by round 13? " no team that's who" and we have already had the bye already in round 9.

worst 12 rounds of injuries souths have ever had since 1908 check the history books that's why we are done no other cause.

why anyone would bother calling souths a fringe team eludes common sense with our injuries this year, i believe jealousy follows souths because we are the most winningest team in rugby league history on the planet and we didn't bend to merge as other teams have.Long live the rabbitohs the pride of the league.

Jealousy does follow Souths for many reasons.
