This bloke came here with massive wraps . Whats gone wrong ? is it plain bad luck ? .............injuries have derailed our season as much as anything .
Looking at the plethora of injured this year, I don't think its fair to lump the blame on Russell for those injuries.
The players with soft tissue injuries are the ones which may raise eyebrows regarding Russell:
Soft tissue injuries to Gov, Williams both have a history of not getting their bodies right did hammies. Saad worked through a thigh issue despite being hampered for a few games, he played on limiting his explosiveness, and Gibbons tore his hammy off the bone. Not sure about Martin's tight hammies and playing underdone, but that may have been on Teague.
Is it the players who said they were right, but weren't or are susceptible to injury? Saad and Gibbons are both just bad luck imo.
I'm comfortable knowing we have Russell on our side.
