Title: potential new recruit?!

how do all,
after a bit of digging around it looks like you chaps are my local RL team.
I am in horsham, sussex, been down here 3 years now though originall y from the north east.
i am thinking of playing again after a VERY long break (abou 6 years) and a very bad (non rugby related) injury. i said i wouldnt play again but it seems i have no lasting damage and could probably play again with no worries (aprt from being VERY VERY unfit!) and the temptation to play again has become too great (and is making my missus go spare).

just wondering if you take on fat unfit broken geezers like me and wonder if i could possibly see how i fair at training? should i turn up or shall i get fit first? i basically want to see how my leg will stand up to playing again

for those that like gory details i snapped my femoral head (the ball on the top of your leg that goes into the hip socket) leaving half of it in the hip socket and diloating the other half and my lef, that meant 2 months in traction (but no operations) and another 2 months on crutches and the same again having physio and learning to walk again!

hope to hear from some of you soon
cheers
Joe

Big Joe, don't get too matey with Eddie Head. Every club has its weirdo, and Eddie is Storm's. :ph43r:

in my experience most clubs are full of assorted mentalists, weirdos and freaks...the more the merrier :wacko:
