If there is a God - he hasn't heard of Richard Kahui, or maybe he has and has taken a rather spiteful view of the Chiefs midfielder.
These are worrying times for Kahui as once again his shoulder is troubling him and the early indications aren't promising. He's had a scan and the initial explorations have found yet more damage.
There will be some more probing over the next few days to ascertain the extent of the injury. Surely, after four major reconstructions in the last six years - two on each shoulder - he can't possibly need a fifth? If he does - who would blame him if he packed it all in?
He might not have a choice - his Japanese club will now be wary. They are expecting him in late August and have paid a small fortune for the pleasure. But their largesse won't extend to accepting damaged goods.
The poor man just has no luck. Having impressed in his two starts this year, he had to pull out of last week's encounter with the Sharks due to a minor hamstring strain. He was fit enough to train fully in Sunday and take part in a tackling session.
