The Roff ward at the hospital in Lismore was very busy over Xmas! Please indicate in the comments the most concerning or indeed your favourite injury.
Maisie's black eyes from Xmas Mass.
Alaine's finger.
Nick's nose.
Cal's cut (at Alcheringa Lake).
Rock's hand (it necessitated plaster after everyone had gone).
Hannah's burns (a favourite for "most concerning").
Ash's cut on his arm from pool rugby.
Lizzie's crayfish poisoning.
Jan's fainting + virus + sleeplessness + migraine.
Grant's graze.
Tom's planter wart (you don't get a runner for a pre game condition).
Pat's ping pong welts (sting pong).
Ash's hamstring.
Rick's exhaustion (or choosing not to play with Glenn when Tom collapsed).
Grant's pride (being beaten in swimming for the first time ever by a dodgy brother).
Peter's eye strain (watching...err... staring at Amber whilst jogging).
Daniel's forked tongue (where again were Marianne's keys found?).
Pat's hand ( he put a fishing hook in it... this is a late entry but it did necessitate a trip to the Lismore hospital).

The Burn was pretty awful, but an unforseen accident. Gandalf's rabbit chop in pool rugby was a premeditated act of violence which led to a very stiff neck on my part. Honestly it was like a scene out of "Underbelly".
Maisie, Pat, Alaine, Lizzie, Ash and Nick always had it coming. Don't think God doesn't watch you when nobody else is looking. For endurance, you can't go past Jan. It got to the stage where I was frightened to ask, "How are you?" Bet it's not in her list of top 10 Christmas holidays.
Maximum sympathy to Tom, though - I've had a planter wart.
How about Joe after he ran into Rowan "the brick wall" Roff during touch footy? Poor guy's only ever played the above ground game so normally has the referee to hide behind. They don't play as kind in the streets of Adelaide.

I wish we had Rowan's K.O. (or was it Joe's?) on tape. It would be viral video gold.
