We have Percival, Lomax, Walsh and Roby all out injured, three of them key players. We all know how long they are apparently going to be out for as these things don't stay hidden in RL, the players talk, the staff talk, the staff that work at the training ground talk. The other clubs will know exactly how all of those players are and who is and who isn't playing every week as SL clubs are so closely connected. What do we gain from keeping it a secret?

I don,t think its much of problem in the delay of injury updates, the club probably don,t want to give any false dawns, its just us fans particularly on the forums that throw out speculative assumptions which creates self secrecy.
Once the club have definite injury detail, I,m sure they will provide the updates, meanwhile it does keep the oppostion teams guessing.

Saints should just do what Leeds do and put out an overestimation of the injury layoff time so nobody expects it expects it when they are back earlier

Bit late in the day to adopt that approach given that we were supposed to have seen Walsh back on the field in week one.

And then he got a virus and then a knock on the ankle in training. What's difficult to follow?

And this is why they should not bother. People want mystic meg predictions.

We have quite a few injuries at Warrington & our club don't give any sort of exact time-scales.
For example for Simon Grix they are saying it will be the Summer. We currently have Richie & Rhys Evans out and TS said that Richie will be a 'while' & Rhys will be a 'while longer'

I'm hoping that James Roby plays against us on Thursday he is class & I love watching him play.

Thank God we are having another injury crisis. The last one was so long ago.

Please go on Redvee and tell some of the people on there that we're not the only club that doesn't put a timescale on injuries.

The worrying thing, can we adapt to having a full strength injury free squad, have we structured to winning the league leaders shield and grand final without key players. Do you think other teams will catch on to this new way of winning silverware!

We do though.
