The most important thing is we get them back to full fitness for the next League game. This. There's confusion over the winter break. Some pundits laughably think it's to do with avoiding bad weather and have a moan when it snows or freezes in February. It's nothing to do with weather and all to do with giving the players a break. It's meant to allow players who have been playing with injuries to get them addressed, either through an op or through rest. As supporters we're often critical of players commitment without realising that most players play with ongoing injuries. Either playing through the pain barrier which can lead to their performances being compromised or with pain killers which can lead to injuries getting worse. Hopefully these are nothing too serious and both can get over them within a couple of weeks. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came up with the same response as Pete... that can't be good. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would agree with that if the did not have to play 4 games in 10 days on return, putting them in a more stressful situation. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does seem a bit strange. However, the break should allow them to deal with it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 As long as it is not a long term injury I am glad McCrorie is getting a rest. on the other hand it would be good to see Jack actually playing again. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
