Oh shoot, sounds sore mate! Hope you get a speedy recovery! I think it is the first time I have heard of this kind of injury, I think I have always had my pads on quite snug because it feels comfortable that way to me. :-[

:( Well, if your bats need some using while you're down, I'm sure plenty of folk will be eyeing up your B3! :D How long do you think you will be out for mate?

Nailed the inside of my ankle with my bat last week, not as bad at that but still had a nice bruise
