Gloucester Rugby Club’s Injury Crisis Deepens as Lock Arthur Clark Urges Calm
Gloucester Rugby Club is set to host Exeter Chiefs today at Kingsholm in a crucial Premiership match, with kick-off scheduled for 3pm. The Cherry and Whites are looking to bounce back from a dismal run of form, having suffered two heavy defeats in their last two outings.
According to reports from The Rugby Paper, Gloucester lock Arthur Clark has insisted that no one is pressing the panic button at Kingsholm despite the team’s recent struggles. Clark, who is now fit again, believes that the team can turn their fortunes around and get back to winning ways.
Gloucester’s European Challenge Cup hopes were dashed in emphatic fashion two weeks ago, as they suffered a 61-26 thrashing at the hands of their West Country rivals, Bath. This was followed by a 36-14 defeat to Saracens in the Premiership, which has left the team reeling. However, Clark remains optimistic, telling The Rugby Paper: “We’re not hitting the panic button. We’ve had a couple of tough results, but we’re working hard to get back to where we want to be.”
The Rugby Paper understands that Gloucester have been hit by a series of injuries, which has disrupted their momentum and contributed to their recent poor form. However, Clark is adamant that the team can overcome their current challenges and start to climb the Premiership table. As he told The Rugby Paper: “We’re not getting too caught up in the negatives. We’re focusing on the positives and working hard to get back to where we want to be.”
Gloucester’s coach, The Rugby Paper understands, is also urging calm and is confident that the team can turn their season around. The team’s fans will be hoping that they can do just that when Exeter Chiefs visit Kingsholm today.
In related news, Exeter Chiefs will be looking to make it three wins in a row when they take on Gloucester today. The Chiefs have been in impressive form of late, and will be confident of causing an upset at Kingsholm. However, Gloucester will be determined to get back to winning ways and move up the Premiership table. As The Rugby Paper reports, it’s set to be a fascinating encounter.
