Hayden Hackney

I'm told it could be 4 weeks unfortunately. And Coburn apparently has a hernia which is being managed
 
Coburn’s not fit you could see that when he came on the other week, he’s there because we have no one else.

He hardly ever warms up either as a sub that speaks volumes.
It’s a shame. Was just coming into his own. Hopefully fit enough on Wednesday
 
He has that extra quality that Howson and Barlaser don't possess where he can get us out of tight areas. As well as being incredibly energetic, showing for the ball all over the pitch.

Doesn't surprise in the slightest that we are struggling without him. We were struggling last season before he broke into the team and when he's not on it the whole team struggles. He's a level above the rest of the current first team.
 
This was an area we were thin in numbers in last season. With Mowatt gone we only had 3. With Hackney out it's 2.
We definitely miss Hackney, and it's going to be a lot to ask Howson to play every minute of every game for the next month with no cover.
Barlaser isn't as good as Hackney, but we'll have to get on with it. Ironically Barlaser was playing well and in on merit until he was rested after his child was born
 
Hackney and Jones were massive misses for us yesterday.

Crooks isn't anywhere near as effective when Jones is out of the side and Hackney gets us playing.

The injury to O’Brien has been so unfortunate. Wonder when he’s back

Well, you could wait for the club to actually admit there's a schedule and a predication but I wouldn't count on it. (Unless of course it's a season). The level of secrecy is right up there with the next mission for the SAS. Our much vaunted medical department seems capable of turning a two match absence into 3 months with alarming regularity.

I know it’s so irritating.
