  Yesterday Tuero and Mäyrä got injured. Today it was Derek Ruch who got a medical leave.
  
  Vasco Assis is still holder of the 'most injuries in a season' award at redop with a total of 4.

  "Something is wrong, we have way too many injuries.. a couple season back we had a RS raising squad to profit from DP/RS and even then we were nowhere near the amount of injuries of today.

  After the World Championships I will give a report of the findings.
  Thank you all."
  said manager of redop.
