Legend

There have been some memorable sporting moments over the years, but arise Sir Jon Wilkin, the 23 year old St Helens second rower. Cup final in front of 65,000+ people, gets a badly broken nose in the first 20 minutes. Mere mortals would be off to hospital, but oh no, not Jon, plays the rest of the game scoring 2 tries in the process

Chuffed to bits

That tackle he did that got him on report was solid doubt anthing will come of it tho it didnt seem high.

 

[Bugz]

That takes a hell of a lot of guts to continue playing anything with a broken nose.

Rep to him if he ever joins FH!

He looks like Pete Doherty in the first picture

aye replays show he hit im in the shoulder first. The one on hooper was worse. Cant really say there was malice, but christ, what a tackle. Again, cant believe Hooper got up and carried on playing.

I think it´s quite strange that he was allowed to continue with an injury like this. First off, it´s dangerous for the player, because I doubt that he was/is able to evaluate the consequences of another tackle of that calibre. And even more important... if you´d see a player in the opposite team with an obviously broken nose, wouldn´t it be a normal reaction to hold back a little and try to avoid aggravating his injury?
But then, I don´t know enough about Rugby.

Nah but you can catch Aids and other nasty llnesses from blood. Thats why they got rid of communal baths in football and have a blood bin in other sports

Excellent game it was Wilkin is a triple hard bastard.
