I read a lot of people blame trainers and their techniques across all the clubs when injuries are brought up, I don't think it is that much of an indication of poor training though
As a few examples, Matai with his smashed nose and finger, doesn't matter how hard he gets worked, get caught like he was and something will break
Luke Burgess gets bent over backwards and does his knee, no extra training will make him the rubber band man, Mateo was put in a similar situation
Most injuries that occur simply come through contact or things being bent in ways they shouldn't be and there is no training you can do to prevent those
It has everything to do with it. The body of a professional athlete in the modern era is a very complex and delicate thing. Training regimes are tailored to the suit the individual, and if they are in anyway out of sync with what's required, injury will be the outcome. It's all to do with the pressure on muscle tissue, joints, and bones. That's why some players will have their knees bent over backwards, have an x-ray, and come back in a month after suffering minor ligament damage, whilst another player will snap their ACL and miss the entire season.
Sure, there are plenty of occurrences that simply cannot be avoided, like a broken jaw from a swinging arm, but the trainers certainly have an influence on player health and fitness, which is why clubs are spending big dollars on employing the best high performance directors/managers and trainers; they know how important it is to success.
