Another big week for A-Russ explaining how he tried to stave off contact injuries to Weitering, Newman and Williams.

Walsh has come back in amazing form
So the data says we consistently run harder than our opponents, and logically we've had to train harder to be able to do this on gameday.
It's not a big leap to suggest that we're playing a style that's more taxing than other teams. So we can expect our players to sustain more soft tissue injuries as a result.
If the coaches have told the fitness staff to get the players to be able to outperform the league in high speed repeat sprints... there's no way you're going to be able to do that without increasing the risk of pinging things.
Imagine if he hadn't been run into the ground in preseason and was available for round 1.

Fitness and conditioning doesn’t matter because the recruiter and coaches have done their job?
I'd argue the Doggies '16 did, and they - like us - were similarly dominant around the ball and had that manic pressure thing we have...Why can’t we have both?
Ridiculous to say we can’t have one without the other, premiership teams don’t have injury lists like ours.

Is that luck or design? You could argue they are premiership teams because they got lucky as much as anything.Why can’t we have both?

Without even doing any research I could definitely say that the bulldogs in 2016 had similar issues. They lost Murphy, Wallis and Redpath to season finishing injuries and had a whole heap of players come back in for the first final after extended injury breaks. That was the first year of the pre finals break - without the break they probably go out in week 1 in Perth.Why can’t we have both?

amen sir. We just touched up the flag favourites while in the midst of an injury ‘crisis’. If people cant just trust things are going ok, and just get on board and enjoy this, what’s the point of even following footy.I get that some supporters are naturally pessimistic and only see the bad in what is happening. I remember one supporter pre-season bookmarking that we would be in crisis by round 6 because we couldn't be trusted. Imagine having that mentality and not being able to enjoy the things that this team is starting to put together.
People complain about soft tissue injuries, but celebrate our pressure, intensity and run as though Russell has nothing to do with that.
