@sangy2912 cheers pal, ill be right for the back end of the season mate

Oh dear I presumed it was a knock & he wasn't being risked as he's been running round like a man posessed on the pitch. Rob's been nothing short of awesome it's a big loss for us here's wishing him a speedy recovery. That's 3 vital forwards out now Hoppy will have to go in't front row if Scott Taylor isn't available & if Spencer isn't available too then we could potentially start ending up like last season again

Speedy recovery Rob

Hope he is back soon but someone told me yesterday he would be out for 8 weeks.

Speedy Recovery Rob

I thought props were tough?!



I had an operation on my thumb and I was back doing the programme the week after. (of course it was my left thumb and I type with my right hand - well, index finger actually!)



Hope all went well Rob and that you're back in action asap. Meanwhile, there's always the day job!

I suppose Parker & Aspinwall can keep relatively fit with the type of injury they have but we could really do with Taylor back although repeat headaches from a bad concussion doesn't sound good. Does anyone know how far Aspinwall is from a come back?
