Message: [QUOTE="The True King, post: 2964983, member: 9651"] As good as those two blokes may be, I seriously doubt they would be the difference between where we are now and top 4. The good sides consistently win the games they are supposed to win, which is the complete opposite of what we do. In terms of injuries, I don't think we have had blokes dropping like flies or had particularly rotten luck. We lost Gillett early and it was clear he would take time to recover, Bird was never fully fit if you ask me. The other side of the coin is that we have seen the likes of Fifita, Staggs and Su'a emerge in their absence - my point being that they weren't exactly positions we didn't have cover in (such as the spine). Take a look at the Panthers or Sharks injury lists during this season, arguably they could be making the same case about the importance of blokes they have been without (Campbell-Gillard, Mansour, Edwards, Graham and Dugan come to mind but there are others). I would also argue that origin was quite friendly to us compared to previous seasons. Given the amount of quality young blokes we have coming through I would suggest we probably will not be so fortunate in coming years. [/QUOTE]
