I think the main problem is playing on hard pitches since the summer era began Do the NRL suffer the same issues, as it was always stated they were fitter and faster due to playing on the harder playing surfaces ?

Nige Arro Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 20 hours ago, spanishknight said: Another reason could also be, years ago both teams had to go back 5 yards at the P,T,B, now its 10 yards and with players being fitter and faster, there hitting each other harder. According to Bradford or Fev fans we only ever go 8 yards back at the p.t.b 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NRL clubs do have injuries like ours and that’s with the best medical and conditioning teams they can get, the difference is they have larger squads and strength in depth unlike ourselves so don’t suffer like we have it’s just part and parcel of rugby league. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
