Was still playing golf and touch footy until I did my knee at 40
Unfortunately the knee injury has wrecked my golf swing and I catch everything thin , even wedges so I can't even play golf competitively 😢
Now my main sport is antagonizing masses of rugby league supporters on this Forum I'm on , you should try it , it's pretty cool

What a shame that knee cost you 16 US Marsters victories in a row..and numerous 7's Gold Medals and World Championships…

2 back to back Achilles surgeries cost me that
Knee just cost me my enjoyment of social sport and almost destroyed us financially , would love to be able to play touch footy still in over 40's Love golf , the fact I could only blame myself when things go wrong on the golf course is enjoyable
Haven't had a great deal of luck with surgeries , lying Sydney surgeons , post surgery medication screw ups and all the linked post op issues that followed
Just think if everything had gone right after the knee surgery the Forum would of dodged having to put up with me :righton:

I played hockey for 30 years, had last year off, making a comeback this year much to my wife's dismay.

Squash was my game ….. but paying for it now.
My back is stuffed.
Should have gave it away when my doc advised in mid 40s.
Now need a forklift to get out of bed every morning.

Played touch football over summer in Perth but when I'm home in Sydney, I do F-class rifle shooting.
Last night things got pretty heated in our Waterpolo game. Mostly it’s not too bad.
We have a couple of ex South African players on our team. Surprisingly it wasn’t them that were involved. I’m one of the sh!ter players on our team and was on the bench for the first quarter along with another guy/ giant.
There was a player on the opposition side that threw a couple of punches and was very mouthie when some told him off. Say stuff like “you want to go then?”. The giant turned to me and said If he does that to me I’m going to belt that bloke. I said he’s been asking for it the whole season.
We got in. I won the swim off. Threw it back and swum forward. I noticed the giant made sure he was marking the Nigel merchant. After about two minutes there was blood everywhere . And the ref called the game off.
