I guess my point would be that these ‘injury crises’ are often greatly exaggerated. I do find it annoying in the build up to international windows when every single minor injury, to anyone vaguely English, is reported as a crushing blow.Banquo wrote:...which we deserve for overplaying our players- hardly a coincidencetwitchy wrote:Timbo wrote:

Well sure, it's also just pure speculation. We are certainly due our yearly pre 6N injury crisis though.
Last 6 Nations, from memory, we lost Kruis and Robshaw for the duration, Haskell missed a game and Mako and Billy a couple? each. That’s about it. Yet I distinctly remember talk of a crises last year.
