    Scobbie
    Quinn
    Edje
    Flood
    Stanton
    Fraser
    Fyvie
    Briels
    Keaings
    The 7 players who haven't had major injury issues are -
    Durnan
    Robson
    Allardice
    McMullan
    King
    McDonald
    Smith

    Out of your 7, i think only McDonald has not been dropped or missed a game or 2 through injury and i would have listed Smith as one of the long term injured.

    I expect that most seasons in the past that we would have had similar issues, but this season, the small squad brings it more into focus when the 2 best players are not not available to us. Im sure Shabba has his list, but the column at the end might be putting someone off!

    If I've forgotten about Smith & he's in the wrong category that makes it 12 long-term injuries out of 18 & I can never remember an injury situation like that.

    Im just wondering where your list is at now? I hope that Durnan has not been knobbled by the BC No10 or we will be looking for a full new spine for our team in this window!

    And what has happened to Murdoch as i fully expected him to be on the bench at least today.
