Reading the Saturday pre-match reviews I've generally been struck by how few injuries this AFC squad are carrying enabling us to play a fullish strength side.
We've not escaped scot-free. Elfverson and White have been long term absentees . However even more susceptible types such as Stuart Malcolm have kept going - more than last season
We hear Gavin Swankie has been struggling with a bit of injury which has impaired his form and maybe been critical as we've striggled to unlock defences occasionally
Is it down to better training or conditioning? Even the suspensions have been kept in check - we can;t blame either of these forced omission factors for slipping back a bit
May this continue - let's keep going to the end and finish with a bang
