Makes no difference, surely, having "big guns" available? After all you've said about having players unavailable having no impact, why would getting some back make a difference?

I said we don't use it as an excuse, Justin expects anyone who comes in to be able to perform. As you are well aware and quite gutted I am sure that Justin just got on with things instead of using the word injuries as every other word in his press conference.
Some teams play the hand they are dealt while others don't. I guess it goes down to your mentality as a coach

"It was obviously disruptive and we also lost Scott Murrell with a tooth infection which threw our plans into disarray. Hopefully we've got all our bad luck out of the way."
"It was very disruptive to us because we had players playing out of position."We had front rowers and second rowers playing in the centres, centres playing full-back and full-backs playing hooker.That was difficult for us as we only had 16 players "

Of course it was disruptive.
It meant that Fitz played hooker in attack and FB when defending.
Stan hadnt trained all week but was thrown in.
Vella to centre just about summed it all up.
Nothing has changed though.
We are still 2 games from maybe reaching Old Trafford and not watching the play offs with green eyes

I would always question that with a coach who decides his best plan is to move a prop to centre.
