Bad luck for the lad, but in truth, he's probably best out of it at the moment, Cas fans are looking for scapegoats and anyone to bash Radford with and he's probably best keeping a distance until either Radford turns it around or gets the boot.

I do fully understand he'd rather be playing and it's a scant reward, just trying to find a positive for him. :|

Please note that I wanted Rocky to stay at Trinity this season, but would the same people be calling Rocky a sicknote like they have with Lee Gaskell and Tom Lineham on this forum. Rugby is one of the hardest contact sports in any arena and players get injured all the time but the above players have been singled out on this forum for been injury prone and they have not had as much injuries as Tom Johnstone. Hope your all not out for too long with injuries and back playing soon.

Spot on, only fools use that expression and in the distant past, I probably have.

From the age of 12 to 38 I never got ill, and I mean never, only threw up twice in that time and both were drink-related. Never broke a bone or caught the flu. Since then the list has been endless, some of it is age-related but the majority is the result of a series of unfortunate events.

I'm physically lazy, I always have been, most people are even if they pretend otherwise, that's the main reason I got away with it for so long. These lads push their bodies to the absolute limit yet people seem shocked when some suffer a series of injuries. It's just bad luck and perhaps a touch of genetics but it shouldn't shock anyone.

If most of the people on here put themselves through a full-on game of RL they would end up with injuries akin to being in a car crash. The only reason these lads manage what they do is that they train and live well and most crucially their bodies have become accustomed to the poundings it receives since childhood. There is however a limit and as is the case with many ailments once one starts it triggers others and you get the so-called injury-prone players. Yet given time many recovers to a degree where they can carry on. Look at Ashurst, he's taken three years to get right or as right as he will ever be, is he a sick-note?

Listen to the Nigel Wright podcast, he was called a sicknote, yet in truth, he was lucky to walk again let alone play and all from one single injury.

That's desperately unlucky for him.

Glad we didn't sign such an injury prone player though - broken jaw, broken hand etc



^^ That's a joke by the way just for the benefit of all those who want to constantly moan that we should have kept Rocky instead of signing Gaskell. All players can get injured - it comes with the territory.
