Vlastuin 28
Prestia 30 (long history of soft tissue injuries)
Tarrant 32
Lynch 30 (Long history of injuries)
Balta 24
Martin 30 (6? Weeks away from the club mid season)
Caddy 30 (recent history of soft tissue injuries)
Cumberland 21
Graham 24 (interrupted pre-season)

Suspect there might be more factors at play than just the loss of Innes.
Just on those Hammy injuries. There is one common denominator for a few of those boys n it's early Mould Coast boys. Lynch, Cadds, Presty n there was a few others as well from the initial start up had lots of long term soft tissue issues as their training facilities were way below standard.

The smile says it all. Toby Nankervis’ knee injury may not be as bad as first thought. The ruckman says he’s a chance to play this weekend.

Need to strengthen the conditioning and fitness area to many hammies this year and struggling to run out games , we have been cutting our spending to much for my liking.
We're still spending the same just a disproportionate amount of it has gone to Dimwiti.

He was happy to share the dollars before his separation but took a big increase in his current extension to pay for a new house and reno's after losing his previous one.

Burge should get into politics, such is the level of spin that goes into the injury updates. They're always framed positively at the start and end with the equivalent of "[insert player] had his foot hacked off with a machete by a hungry Hutu, touch and go for this week".

Good news is all the injuries are short term with Stack and Lambert being the longest at about 2 to 3 weeks each. Hopefully when all our troops are back they remain healthy for the rest of the season. Our best with a full compliment is still good enough.

Gotta give it to Syd.

He has THE WORST timing for getting injured out of anyone on the list.

Cost him 2019 GF, and could well cost him his career this season, after getting his face broken on the cusp of a senior return.

Yeah, it’s just all grey area “non specific” speak.
