Richard Agar has confirmed Tim Smith will go for an x-ray on his leg. Could be anything from bad bruising to a broken leg.

Everyone start praying.











Would be an devestating blow to our chances.

Bleeding silly games

Hope its not serious, huge loss if it is.

Fingers crossed its just a hard knock and not a break

Andy Raleigh went off injured as well.

Really? Any idea what with?

Possibly broken ribs

Oh ffs, exactly what we didn't want, lets hope it's nothing more than a badly bruised dead leg.

Seems like we've had more injuries this pre season than in the league last year. Need everyone ready for the Bulls game. They did ok today against Rhinos

Both would be huge losses if they're out. Raleigh was our best prop today and probably all last season. Without smith there's no fluency in attack. Fingers crossed

Hope Tim Smith is ok! Hope its a dead leg



Where did it go wrong up the middle or out wide? (Probably both.....)

Schoey might have a point that without him we don't have the creativity or cutting edge needed.

We need Tim Smith, Raleigh, Amor, Wilkes and Wood fit and ready to go in the next 2/3 weeks.

Guess it's a good job we didn't get rid of John after all!!!!!

Why play him in the third game running don't get it !!! We know hes our main man why risk him.

Seeing as he's our General then he needs to play so that the others can learn him inside out, pointless leaving out your playmaker.

Exactly, He needs to teach the new signings how he plays so they/he can adapt to them. If he is seriously injured I wonder if Goulding will return from Doncaster??

Hindsight's a wonderful thing and like Trinity said above he's the main man, everything attacking wise goes through him and the team simply need to practice before the season to get their moves sorted in a game scenario.

Fingers crossed that it's only a knock - it would be devastating if he were out for the start of the season.

He's on dual reg so can come back if we wish. Played his first game for them today vs Keighley and won man of the match.

The fact that there are doubts about 3 of our top four props is as much of a concern as Smiths injury. We need at least two of those fit and firing to have a chance of competing imho. Fingers crossed they are ok.

if its bruising that looks bad enough to be mistaken for a break, Im not sure it'll clear up in time for the Bradford game, so id not be expecting to see Tim smith again until week two at the very earliest, possibly week 3.

I badly bruised my leg playing rugby. Was on crutches for few weeks. About a month till I was right.

Either way its not good news. This pre-season has not need kind going into 2013.

All the best to smith for a quick recovery.

Lets hope its just a bad knock as Wood wont be ready but gives another squad member a chance to show what they have or not as the case might be.

this certainly doesn't sound good news at all for Tim.
I too suffered a similar injury in which the bone had cracked and not a clean break, the bone could of splinted and when snapped tend to pop through the leg

my recovery time was eased as I didn't need to wear a pot and had a heavy strapping to keep it in place

fingers crossed for you Tim

was this injury when you damaged your finger,playing dards.180,
