Dude I keep telling you. You're not Sonny Bill. You can't shoulder charge anything.

That’s the way I’m looking at it, bro.
4-5 weeks of pain for a lifetime of mobility? I’ll take that deal, anyday.
You know Billy in the places I’ve been and the people that I’ve talked too..one thing I’ve learnt.... From my own experience too..it doesn’t take much but a slight error of judgment to damage the spinal-cord..

I was talking to nurse once..she told me about a surf instructor for kids… He told them never to dive head first into the surf because you could hit a sandbank.. One day he went against his own advice… He’d never done it before.. What do you know head first into a sand bank ended up quadriplegic..I could bore you with my story but I won’t… Just so glad you’re okay bud because it’s not the best way to live but there are worse ways..You could be a Parramatta supporter!! :grimacing:

Most parra supporters are disabled but not physically

Body surfing. I was in 8ft of water but the wave I was on was big enough to suck most of it out.
Next thing I know, I’m head first into the bottom.
Shit man you are very lucky. Glad it wasn't your neck.

Thought I broke my neck today. 6 hours on a spinal board in a neck brace a couple of X-rays and CT scans later, Turns out, I broke the ball completely off my shoulder.

Oh damn dude, that is scary. I hope you have a speedy recovery. I’m scared to ask how this happened. Glad, you’re alive.

You are a lucky mofo, firstly you didn’t break your neck, and now you’re entitled to some serious painkillers have fun, and good luck with your recovery mate!
