First injury of the season
We've not started the season yet, but Carla has still managed to put herself out of action for the next few weeks. The exact circumstances behind our senior hooker's injury ("senior" in as much as she has been playing for Letchworth longer than Charlie or Emily) are unclear but I gather that she has damaged tendons in her shoulder and hand and will be unable to train or play for at least the next two weeks, and possibly as much as three months.
Carla has been involved in a number of bizarre off-field injuries over the years, but normally this has involved inflicting the injury on others - such as, or example, knackering Hayley's hand on a bouncy castle the day before the Regional Festival in 2006, and then (if I remember right) managing to injure Robyn with a chocolate bar last Christmas (but without any explanation as to how this was achieved). Taking herself "out" would seem to be a new departure, and it all goes to show that the rugby pitch often seems to be a far safer place to be than the Real World.
