I am happy with this. He's just had his first full season in the position. I didn't really fancy him playing the 4N then straight back into another full season.

He was limping very badly at the back end of the second half on Saturday night.

Jamie Foster is also in trouble with a groin problem. He's seeing a specialist and may have to have an operation.

So we will begin next season with Lomax, Foster and Shenton recovering from significant injuries, possibly Wello too and Hohaia, if he goes ahead with his operation.

Great.

Agreed. A full and fresh pre season is underestimated in sport, it is where all the strength work is put in.

I think it is a little too early for him, from a selfish Saints point of view obviously. I'm sure he is gutted.

don;t worry - you only have to start playing well in September.

SaintsFan - I was just going to say, I wouldn't worry about that. Didn't do us any harm this season!
