Hope your injuries are not as bad as they looked, never good to pick up three in a friendly.

Only one that's bad other two will be back in a few weeks

Ploppedy. Best wishes to him.

With Green and Galea out long-ish term, worth having a proper look at Senior? When is he due to be match fit?

Re Keith Senior, this recent link might help http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2012/ja ... aves-video I would go for him, and since Rovers banked a decent cut from the derby match Senior's sign-on fee should be covered lol!

I'd leave him well alone, even if fit he's not what he was. I'd rather play a youngster who would get better than an old fella who will get worse, he's not even a nice bloke.

Obviously disappointing news for us, let's not restart the spiral, cheers, MR, get it right soon skipper

10/12 weeks out, bad news for certain, but who do we see getting the nod to replace him?

I agree to an extent - but more injuries are a sad inevitability. When it's 2 or 4 weeks, then you can cover, and as one player gets injured another is generally due to return. When it's longer term, like Green and Galea that is thinning the squad.
I'd be happy enough to see Jordan Cox play a dozen games in a row - but if something happened to him, I think it would be beyond Aaron Ollet to do that at this stage in his development.

There's talk that Senior himself, will miss the start of the season. How many games in? If it's anywhere near 4, assess the injuries at that stage, if there's no more knocks, it's only 6/8 weeks and Galea is back.

Stay away from Senior, He's after a payday, naturally. Hope we're not the mugs to take the bait.
