So Al, if Randle gos down in the next game, then its 100% bad coaching by the coach ? same with cotton ?
Injuries always happen at some time, sometimes its a main player, sometimes it means teams lose, yes, yes and yes. Mostly that's not in the control of the coach, also true.
This why the english language has one word for "excuse", and another for "reason".
injuries are mostly "reasons" for lower performance, rather than coaching excuses ... except in the case of a NSW coache who decided to have their players play beach volleyball/cricket with a basketball and cause a number of injuries ... there's my 70's mindset for you :) !!!
