Tough call Tony, At least there is light at the end of the tunnel and time will bring you back to fitness hope fully. You never no some thing might crop up that because of Rugby you would not have had the oppotunity to find out about. Have you thought about some thing else to fill you time with , like cliff diving or base jumping, sure safer than Rugby
Ehhhh how about motor cycle racing that'll be right up your street . Chin up mate . 4D
