I prefer the breast or leg pieces to be honest. Can't imagine you'd get much meat on a jawbone.

Maybe he caught caveman flu from the jawbone...

How did they know it was dislocated, unless the rest of the skull was present too, or at least the mandibular joint?

Skulls are pretty heavy so I can see him straining himself lifting it up, especially if it was an archaeological dig and perhaps the skull and dislocated jaw of a Brachiosaur.

...or a Blue Whale. That'd strain the whole Team and half the Crowd.

Half the crowd?
What, 5 people?

That's another way to look at it, EM. I automatically assumed, given my medical background, that it was the injury rather than the actual location that gave rise to "dislocated".

Pan? (gie's a blow o' yer pipes )

You mean where everyone pretends they can read?

I think there is an oddity in the injury lists.

Have had players out for 1 week with a broken leg and players out for 3 weeks with a sprained ankle?!!!!

I used to referee with a guy who sprained his ankle, and the docs said he would have been better off breaking it, as it would have healed more quickly, and have caused less damage. Granted, a week for a broken leg is quite suspect, but I haven't seen anything talking about hairline fractures, so that's what I'm assuming the broken leg referred to.

A broken leg can be misleading, as a broken leg is often used to define a leg fracture, even though in a fracture, the bone doesn't have to break.
A minor fracture may only mean one or two weeks on the sidelines, but even so, I've never known that to be termed a broken leg!

I've been out injured for my Sunday team for about 5/6 weeks now with a sprained ankle (well, ankle ligament damage really) and I'd much rather have had a broken ankle, going by the sound of that. Would've got me signed off work for a few days at least.
