An epic 15min into a preseason game, no lost line outs and a charge down to my name
I was over the ball and should have gained a penalty...and then this bloke cleared me out
....I got a “I said you were too old” but that’s about it

Ah man. Was just reading through and going to say how awesome it all was. This is why I “retired” in my 20s. Love rugby to bits but the injuries make it hard to go back to. Hope you have a speedy recovery

Further update for anyone interested
MRI has confirmed ruptured ACL and high grade tears or MCL and LCL...so I basically have 1/4 ligaments left In my knee, full leg brace until surgery because it’s so unstable
In a weird twist I have been strong armed into managing the 2nds, this is going to be interesting!
Anyone in Melbourne feel like a game of code let me know

@kiwiwomble fucked.
But also: smack some heads with that clipboard!

You're probably not the best example for getting back into rugby again....

But a great example of why you should bay you subs and get the associated insurance!

Bright, and crisp, relatively warm weather in Cornwall. Took the Honda 250 out for a quick shakedown before its MoT next week. Coming into a warm house after a ride in crisp weather was great.

@victor-meldrew sensational.
Got the day off today, water on for brewing 50L of pilsner. Lunch out, then pub tonight and the usual weekend fun tomorrow culminating in live rugby.
Good times. Winning the AC was surprisingly enjoyable

I've got a Real Ale kit I need to brew soon - should be ready for early summer drinking
