Not really, Coote was laughing 5 mins after he went off and Walmsley was holding his trap but neither him nor the doctor looked overly worried. Both precautionary would be my guess and no worries if they need sit out next week.

So basically anywhere from a few days to a couple of months depending on the severity and if it is definitely the MCL.
Forwards win games. The backs decide by how much.
The state of the pitch isn't going to help much with injuries, firm in places and really sticky in others making a decision over studs impossible. Last season the excuse was a newly laid pitch, I don't know if was relaid again but for the first match of the season it didn't look too good, even allowing for the earlier rain which was hardly torrential.,divots all over the place, a lot caused by players attempting to change direction
It's that bloody cladding! Stupid idea...
Coote didn’t look too bad, he managed to get off the pitch himself and after the game he seemed to be walking okay so hopefully we’ll have him back for Hull or the WCC. No need to rush him back though as Welsby looked more than comfortable at full back.
I spoke to one of the ground staff after the game who I know. Apparently it was re seeded in Oct and won't have put its roots down over winter. They've had heat lamps on to promote growth. Showed my 6 Yr old twins the Jp final on you tube today. Same time of year. They couldn't believe the mud.

The Leeds pitch isn’t in the best of health but they have the rugger chaps not helping by playing there. Also it seems the world’s best redeveloped stadium hasn’t pleased some of the Leeds fans yet again yesterday, with overcrowding in the south stand, and some season ticket holders who use the seats in that stand not being able sit there because someone had already taken their seat, so they had too move elsewhere in the ground. Hopefully for them they were given seats facing the cricket pitch.
The depth of squad we have this season is great!
Getting some of the lads much needed game time which will help a lot with maintaining high performance because players will want to keep their starting position.
Alex will be out with a torn calf for 6 weeks
Percival is going to be 2-3 i'd say
It's mounting anymore missed
He was holding his sternum area. BBC says chest injury
Sky said Al had tore his calf but Saints have played it down, though we’ll find out more today or tomorrow probably when it’s scanned.
