Daniel Heckenberg has had a lot of injury problems with his shoulder. I think Chad Randall has been pretty solid though over the last few seasons.

Karl Pryce has been unlucky with injuries over the last year or so.

What was the treatment that Alker had about 3 years ago? Seem to remember they commented that normal recovery to back to work for even a white collar worker was something like 6 weeks but he played Super League after 5?

Can any of the Salford boys confirm what it was? Amazing for him to play I seem to remember.

He had his appendix out, and made it back after about a month out IIRC

Paper has to be Ian Sibbit, don't think he's ever put a full pre season together with us apart from this year

I know life is easier for wingers, but didn't Scott Donald go something like 100 consecutive appearances after signing for Leeds?

Again he's a back so it's slightly different, but Keith Senior's longevity is impressive. How many of the originals from the first season of SL are still playing at that level?

Apart from Senior - Keiron Cunningham, Nick Fozzard (edit - I think), Sean Long, Terry Newton and Paul Johnson. Plus Robbie Paul, who hasn't played all seasons in Super League, unlike the others.

he played in the final game of the season after the final, then found out when he saw a specialist at the end of the season, was told he didnt need an operation as the bones would heal. and was back ready for training in november.
