Title: I'm not playing rugby....
Post by: TheBoy on 09 March 2008, 12:13:38
Just had air ambulance arrive in the rugby field (for those that don't know, my house backs on to rugby field).

Now I know its a contact sport, but I thought it had to be very serious for air ambulance? Hope whoever it is makes a speedy recovery (due to proximity, a few of my neighbours are members there, and my nearest neighbour is vice captain).  :'(

Let's hope it's not your next door neighbour (good bloke he is :y).

Mate of mine used to be a keen rugby player.. until he broke his leg (both bones) in 3 places and ended up full of metalwork. He dismissed it as a flesh wound at the time but I notice he hasn't played rubgy since.

Hope whoever it is is OK.  :(

often a matter of insurance.

even at Club and County level, this can be a bit of a PITA

Used to play at school (football wasn't an option  :'(), but like you, lost a bit of bottle when a mate was taken to hospital with multiple fractures.
