When players play more minutes, then they have more time to get injured.
So I think that 1. is yes

Sure, but I don't think that 2 games of 24 mins each give you a higher chance than 1 game of 48 minutes, which I believe was the question.

It maybe is a bit bigger risk but yeah I did not understand the question.

Koz is correct, I'm asking if there is a higher chance of injury from playing all 48 minutes in one game or if it is the same as playing 24 minutes twice.

In the rules does not says that playing 48+ minutes in one game increase the possibility of injurue. It does says that playing more than 96 minutes in a given week will increse it.

As far as I know playing 48 minutes in a game is the same as playing two 24 minutes. The only think that should be said is that this is true for an interval of total minutes from 0 to 96 minutes in any given week.

Actually, there's nothing like that in the Rules.

Depends on a script but I wouldn't rule out a possibility that 24 minutes twice brings bigger chance of an injury (if the engine checks per match rather than per minute/possession - I believe the latter is the case, but it could be either way actually)

Since players get injured on a specific play, and not after the game, it would seem more logical that the engine checks for injuries per play, and not per minute or game. Otherwise, the engine must know in advance what players will be involved in what plays, seems a bit cumbersome, at least to me.

i could follow his logic, and would also believe that there is no injury per game decision.

He is arguing with someone who agrees that´s the point. Just saying there is no prove for either case thus "I wouldn´t rule out completely..."

I agree, there is no proof either way, unless we get information from the lion's mouth. However, one question that I typically ask myself in such cases is, "How would I construct the algorithm if I were doing the programming" -- some things just require too complicated constructions, and provide too little benefit. But then again, this is just me.
