Finished rugby , bailed before the drinking got heavy and now stuffing my face with a takeaway.

Question is , is 30 too young to retire? Haha

From rugby, the drinking, or the takeaway?

There’s loads of years left for the latter two, I’m still going strong at them both!

I play wheelchair basketball. I should roll my arse down to the next town, which has a wheelchair rugby team.

Wheelchair sport can be pretty brutal

We have several older gentlemen still playing (& not just in the bottom leagues) down here! Last week there was a 50 something and a 60 something both playing, they were intrinsically short of players and there, famously, is a guy in his 70s that still plays a full match every week and is absolutely hard as nails!!!!
