Last night was the Leeds Rhinos v Hull KR playoff game. We won 44-8.
We played well but the game was marred by the injury of ex-Rhino's player and current Hull player Chev Walker, who suffered a compound fracture to his left leg.
Fair play to the man though, he didn't release the ball until given the all clear from the ref! Determined to keep possession.
Glad he got a good reception from our Rhino's fans though, he was a great player for us before going into Union. Good too see him wave and give a thumbs up the crowd too.
Rumour is he may not play again, but I hope he makes a full recovery.
He comes from the same area from Leeds as me too (Seacroft). Top man Chev, all the best.
Oh, and just to show how bad it was, here's a quote from their coach: "Obviously the bone popped through the skin so it looked fairly nasty."
It wasn't even a bad tackle really...
