| Having finished school, I then moved on to play for my university side, and also my local club side, normally playing for the 2nds for them, due to my inexperience, but was starting to break into the 1sts until a bad knee injury, with a pretty severe amount of ligament damage. |
Ah, ligament damage is a cuunt.
In grade 11 I was playing for the 3rds and had already finished my game when the 2nds coach asked me to come bench for their game. I got subbed on at halfback.. everything was going swimmingly until I got hit with a late tackle behind the ruck after I passed the ball out. This big samoan guy crushed me into the ground and I landed on the point of my shoulder with all his weight on top of it.. thought I'd broken my collar bone at first, but I'd actually torn all the ligaments in the my shoulder. Sucked because all I could show for battle wounds was a lousy sling and I felt like I deserved a cast or something lol. Shit kept me sidelined for a while.
