Thanks very much for the link.

Hi all I thought I would fill you in briefly on what we have heard about Richard Sweetman's injury. His wrist is not broken as first reported but he has a nasty cut on it which required stitches. Unfortunately though he has damaged one of the vertebrae in his back which will put him out of action for some time. He does have full movement. He is due to be flown back to Newcastle within the next few days. I feel so sorry for him as this will put him out of the next 2 rounds of the Aussie champs as well as the Under 21 championship at the end of this month Bad luck for him but it could have been lot's worse.
