Clamping of the week.

Ya he signed. And they seem to be quite honorable in such dealings.

However i donā€™t think he has to be banjaxxed for life. A lifestyle adjustment and the correct exercise prescription will let him have a normal balanced healthy life over time.

Did I? I said I would be attending a PwC networking event.

Thereā€™s already a People Kev knows thread. I wouldnā€™t want to deflect from its popularity.

Rattled. And laughing at your own jokes.

Go away and do some work.

Heā€™s only retired from international rugby lads unless something isnā€™t being reported? It was always planned heā€™d retire after the World Cup and play with Toulon for the rest of the season. How long is his recovery period? He should be back for the 2nd half of the season shouldnā€™t he?

Paul O Connell is the greatest ever Irish person.

They will surely retire the No. 5 jersey in his honour tooā€¦

Depends on how bad it is, his age should slow recovery pretty significantly. Itā€™s a 4.5+ month injury for a teenager so he would be doing well to be back at all

I doubt it. Season done i would think.
Worked with a guy in Oz, a pro as well, with identical injury. He was immensly diligent training 10-12 times a week for 9 months after initial 2 month total recovery but eventually threw his hat at it. There will have to be a graft first.
The guy i was with developed a mis-step, it was really noticable and this is common. This is what we were trying to get out of him and he was making progress but decided at 28/29 to concentrate on becoming a coach.

In POCā€™S case he might, and this is a big might, get away with some loss of running technique which was hardly great anyway. My fella was an inside midfielder at 75-80KG, his movement was everything.

If i were him iā€™d tell Toulon thanks but if ye want tear up the contract.its worse than ACLā€™s or breaks in some cases.

Or maybe a guy hanging on a sigerson appearence 15 years on. That could be worse actually.
