Worst injury

[Footy Chick]

Personal injuries- 4 x knee reco
1 x broken ankle (also needed reco as ligament torn as well)
2 x broken wrists (1 recon)
fractured vertabrae
about 6 other knee scopes
3 x broken nose
2 x broken thumb
Couple of others I have seen - 2 team mates collided 1 of the guys not wearing a mouth guard and spilt 4-5 teeth the other guys major injury was the fact that his false eye fell out and needed to be found!!
- my old man haapened to be on the outside of a pack- a player was thrown out of the pack, must have had mouth open- bit my old man on the top of the forehand lots of blood!

at your age mate you would've seen plenty of injuries old timer !

Some people just don't know when to give up

Not a footy injury but the worst I've ever seen would have to be Eduardo's from Arsenal in the Premier League on the weekend.

One of the most sickening images I've ever seen is a picture taken right as his leg was struck and another just after. It looked like his foot is only being held on by his sock.

Made Nathan Brown's leg look like nothing.

Back on topic for myself, I've had several injuries in my time, but most are quite minor.
-broken finger
-both ac joints (missed 3 weeks each time)
-sprained ankles (several times on both like many other people)
-had snapping hip syndrome during a growth spurt in late high school
-plenty of black eyes (some quite bad ones where the eye has closed over)

Sounds like what happened to Jason Snell. It will be career ending.

[LaughingKookaburra]

Jason Snell,his ankle was shocking. has to fuse his foot back to his leg. Any body see Cisse's broken leg against china a few years ago?? If this works WARNING IT WILL MAKE YOU CRINGE!!

One of my teammates replicated Nathan Brown's broken leg with the help of some dirty bloke's roundhouse kick at the ball... seconds after an opp. player popped a rib running into his twin. This was during a trial game.

As for myself, My injuries have been minor so far. Shoulder (v. minor) and foot tendon. So far, so good. Think I damaged a knuckle on the weekend letting out the frustrations after a loss.

ive been pretty lucky in 130 odd games, apart from adductor injury i got now, worst injurys have been broken ribs a couple of times. Quite painful when u have hayfever at the same time, sneezing 20x a day!! Cracked one in Rd 1 still feelin it

[bass_player]

Upon reading this post last Friday I was thinking I'm pretty lucky, having only broken fingers and thumbs. Then I played on Saturday, was on the park for about 1 minute and broke my arm! Shouldn't have read this post!

[nuggety goodness]

when i was 18 i ripped the meniscus on the outside of my knee and dislocated my femur at the knee joint, this was in the first ten minutes of the first Semi, there goes my year...

then did the same thing the next year but in the Prelim, missed the GF which the boys won... maybe not the worst injury but the timing was the worst... i still got a medal but it's just not the same...

[Saint]

When i was 15 a piece of bone about the size of a small tooth broke off in my knee and hacked up my cartlidge the result was my knee swelling up to the size of a football, and me having to have a arthoscopy to have the bone removed and my cartlidge trimmed

[Robran]

worst for me was jumping a fence to get to a swimming pool at about 4 am on a footy trip, slipped and smashed crap out of my thumb....it counts as a footy injury cause it was a footy trip. never really had bad footy injuries, once i got sand in my eyes from the cricket pitch.

DOING MY KNEE IN AGRAND FINAL WORST PAIN I HAVE FELT IN MY LIFE ALTHOUGH ONLY LASTED 5 MINS THEN GOT BLOOD CLOT IN MY KNEE WHICH PUT ME ON MEDICTION TO THIN THE BLOOD MISSED OVER 2 YEARS WITH THIS.BEING KING HIT FROM BEHIND AND THE PR#ICK
BROKE MY EYE SOCKET MY SOCKET WAS DOWN IN CHEEKBONE NOW HAVE PLASTIC EYE SOCKET
FROM IT.

[boozehound]

Went up for a mark and put my hand down to break my fall. Landed index finger straight into the ground and disclocated it backwards, pushing the bone straight through the skin.

Popped it back in and went to hospital. Played the next week to get in to the finals and did it again, got infected and ended up in hospital for a week......the things we do for footy.......
