I think we should've just eased players back slower with minutes solely coming from the bench in the first few games/weeks. How they reintroduced Adama was fantastic.

It's all hindsight though so it's complete bollocks really. I suspect the injury record next year will be fine, as they'll get a full and tough pre season and hopefully plenty of pre season games too

It seems like every team has struggled with injuries this season tbh. Either the overall quality of physio and rehab is getting worse or the ever increasing pace and intensity of the game is taking its toll added to the hectic schedules.

Short of a miracle for Sheff Wed, I’d like to see us go for Windass. I think he’s add that same thing that Connolly can.
Maybe I’m just going for him because of Deano?

Had a similar discussion with my mate the other day about a Hull FC player who currently has the most embarrassing mullet hairstyle you can imagine. I told him none of the head coaches I worked under would have him in the sqaud looking like that. When you're trying to build a strong team mentality no single player should be carrying on like a clown trying to be the centre of attention.

I'm sure there will be plenty of people on here who also adhere to the white (or coloured) boots rule. You earn the right to wear footwear like that and I would suggest Connoly is currently at the stage of his career where he should be greatful he is still getting paid given his contribution to any of the clubs he has played for!

It easy to say that with hindsight but when Allahyar got injured at Wigan, we were still very much in the relegation mix and he made a big difference.

Tetteh's similar in that we're a much better side when he plays so we wanted him to play as many minutes as possible. That's always going to increase the risk of injury

It's not hindsight at all, as people have said, hamstrings re-occurring can happen, it's pretty basic knowledge, having Ally play two games in 3 days from the start was daft and it doesn't take hindsight to know that.

You can only be so cautious though. They have all the data on every player. If his levels and load and every possible measure show that he's fully fit, what more can you do? You could always wait another week and another week but you have to play them again at some point and they could get an injury in that game or in the weeks that follow.

Again though, two games in 3 days is not just being 'so cautious', it's being daft. Easing him back in like we did with Traore, for instance, was clearly the way to go and Rosie admitted as such after the re-ocurrence.
 
I might start posting a bit more often, just to try make a difference to the usual **** on here.

I probably won't though. So would someone else do it please.

Bonus point for naming that tune.

We're going round in circles with this. Rosenior explained in full that Allahyar had shown through all of his load levels and metrics that he was 100% fit and ready. You could always leave him one more game but then if he gets injured whenever he does play again people will still say it was too early. If he was mysteriously still missing weeks after being perfectly fit people wouldn't be happy with that either. At some point players have to come back and there is always a risk they'll get injured again. In Tetteh's case it was about 2 months after he'd first returned from his previous one.

Rosenior said he shouldn’t have played him 3 times in a week.

We really are going round in circles. He sort of said that as part of a wider comment where he explained the science that showed he couldn't have been any more ready.

Short summer didn't help any club in the northern hemisphere.

Personally, I feel it is more to do with the intensity of games now and the schedule. Players are being asked to press all over the pitch, and I would guess that levels of running and effort have increased over the last few seasons. Hence why squads now are probably bigger.because there has to be more rotation than before.
