Across the whole competition I feel as though majority of sides are having a wretched run with injuries to personnel with players going down left, right and centre.
On the weekend alone off the top of my head, Touk Miller
ended up in crutches, Adam Kennedy
has done an ACL, Sam Taylor
has a 10 week hammy and another handful of concussions.
Is the way the game is being played the reason? Are restricted interchange numbers starting to have a toll? Just bad luck?
Whatever it is, I’ve personally never seen so many sides in the competition be undermanned as I have this year. WCE apparently had 25 players on their list to choose from for the weekend, and at least 4-5 clubs across the competition are without 3-4 of their top 10 players.
I’m not asking for a change, just seeing if anyone else has noticed the same thing.
