Hope both recover quickly whatever injuries they actually have. They have both been playing great for us recently, Amos in particular.

However, in a positive view, for once we have a strong depth to our squad and with the likes of Phelps (and further back Ainscough) as cover for Amos and Deacon and Riddell to come back to fill in for Leuluai, we might just be able to cope with their absences till they recover.

### Not official, but Here Goes (Rogues/Hogan etc will know where this has come from

Amos Post Medial Ligament - 6/8 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tommy = Bruised Foot - 2/3 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Result

Great news if true, as we all feared the worst.

Let's hope we can get some sort of official confirmation today, on the both of them.

A hell of a lot better than expected if true, we could have potentially lost Amos for the rest of the year.

sent my complaint off to the BBC , please anyone who hasnt done it , do it asap,

Awesome if true. Amos 6-8 weeks means he will be coming back just in time for June when the real summer rugby begins and the ground hardens up. Could be perfect for him (and us as a team) if he come back in the form he has been in.

Yeah, I've also been told today Amos is out for around 6 weeks too. Great news for him and the club if that's true.

Question is, if Phelps comes back and does great, and Goulding carries on his rich scoring run, does he walk straight back into the side?

But that would be a great problem and give us more options.

Well that would also depend how the rest of the backline plus the two hookers where playing, given the options we have for mixing and matching.

sent mine off
hope its confirmed about amos and tommy would be great news rather than what was feared

Hope the BBC get bombarded with complaints. Dont want the guy to lose his job just a good grovel will do for me. Anyroads Ive sent mine.

Whilst I loathe and detest what Beswick stands for ( i.e Wire ).... come on people its something and nothing that he actually says.

I dont think for one single minute that he really wants Amos to have a broken leg. Its a not thought out chuckaway remark to a colleague, thats all.

I can remember shouting 'rip his head off' several times at Knowsley road on Good Friday but I didnt literally mean rip it off

Yeah. Can't use the ambulance; someone might need it!

Nothing in that comment at all imo

Sincerely hope its true about Amos. It'll be fantastic news for him and the club.

Having listened to it, this is all much ado about nothing.

There is a big difference though: you were not on a public broadcast radio channel. He makes pratish comments like that all the time and so I don't think he was being specifically vindictive but it was very insensitive. He will probably come on again saying that all the Wiganers who complained should get a life.

The man is a prat.

They wont use it for a player unless its very urgent. They have to have an ambulence at the ground, for fans etc. So they wont use it for a player unless they have to idiot. Otherwise they would have to replace it straight away.

I have heard from a relation to one of the players that Amos Robers has done his ligaments and will be out for around 6 weeks.

Also heard from the same person that Leuluai has stop broken his foot.

They seem to manage with football. You put Amos in that ambulance and the one on its way for him replaces said ambulance.

Simples as they say.

Leuluai has what?

Sorry has not broken his foot.
