The last person who told me they were going to have an exploratory poke around left me mentally scarred for lifeIt's only exploratory, it's not like they are stitching his arse hole back on. Unless they are and exploratory is the only word they could think of
It's like the 90's all over again, we've been pretty poor this season with injuries.There were rumours earlier in the season that Poch wasn't happy with our medical staff and wanted to start again........hopefully true as they seem to be mis-diagnosing a lot of injuries recently

I'd say that rehabilitation is an issue full stop to be honest. As you say, fitness/conditioning is fine, but the physio team is doing a poor job by the looks of it, even in the development squad, when it comes to actual injuries... or maybe bad luck, but it feels similar.I think it's slightly different to then when we were universally bad.
Now we seem to have good general fitness levels and are able to prevent muscle injuries - but our treatment of impact injuries is rubbish.
I do not blame the physio team. Arthroscopic surgery is always a last resort, and obviously the meniscus needs some work. I was a decent runner in my late 20's, had to get the scope, ran again but was never the same, not that I should be compared to Danny.I'd say that rehabilitation is an issue full stop to be honest.

Wouldn't it be the sports scientists and selection policy that are responsible for preventing injuries? When we do get injuries they tend to last a long time so i'm slightly reluctant to praise the physios.Not the best outcome, but it means he will miss England qualifier games and he will hopefully return fully fit and fresh for the next campaign.
I don't think our physio team are to blame, we don't suffer any more injuries than other sides, they are just more noticeable because we don't have the squad depth to replace our key players.
Will probably be asked about Walker....Danny Rose on Five Live right now!
No chance. That would be pre-arranged.Will probably be asked about Walker....
Can we swap the Danny's around until his knee heals?"we have to try and make 1 marquee signing that helps us push forward"
Love it !!!
"we need better squad depth"
Well said Danny.
