Confirmed by Woolf today in the post match interview that Lewis Dodd has suffered an achilles injury and will be out for the rest of the season and miss the World Cup. It's a sad moment as he's been England's best 7 for a while now and will miss out on the World Cup as well as the rest of the season with Saints.

It also levels up the competition dramatically as it's the one position Saints can't cover with a like for like player. We now have a choice between moving two or three players to get around it or play someone out of position. Awful news for us, with the ridiculous fixture schedule they're throwing at Saints.

What’s the ‘ridiculous fixture schedule’ you speak of?

that's what I thought these stains fans are in a different bubble

It's ridiculous for them all, particularly the French teams. But who had the most difficult Easter weekend fixtures? Saints easily. Who didn't get the extra days rest by playing on the Thursday? Saints and three other teams. Of the teams that played on Friday, who is the only one made to play this coming Friday? Saints.

Must be very tempting to send the reserves and take the rest instead.

like you did in Toulouse

That's what a squad is for. Use it.

We didn’t it was almost full strength just 3 players missing. Ignore Saddened we are using our squad depth.

I expect better from you They could learn a lot from me.

I know, its like flogging a dead horse if you write that word..........Saints.

One Saints injury and the world has to stop.
