I agree entirely but we need to have a deeper look.

Mitchito Owens	Shoulder	Test
Liam Henry	Knee	Test
Cooper Sharman	Thumb	1-2 weeks
Max King	Knee	2-3 weeks
Dan Butler	Achilles	2-3 weeks
Alix Tauru	Back	3 weeks
Mattaes Phillipou	Leg	6-7 weeks
Dougal Howard	Shoulder	6-7 weeks
Paddy Dow	Knee	TBC

Chito, Coops, Butler, injured in a practice match. So do we stop practice matches?

Howard and King injured during normal run of the mill training. So do we stop training?

Dow, Tauru, Henry basically LTI from 2024

Pou stress fracture in the femur of all things.

So of the 9 it's really only Pou that "may" have been preventable.

I'd say the only thing I've heard that makes much sense is that our players aren't carrying enough muscle mass. RTB is philosophically looking for a running game which impacts the way they want the players conditioned.
