Quote: Side Burns "You are kidding? That's not even the worst facial injury I've seen on a Saints player in the last 10 years. Did you not see Paul Wellens in the 2001 Grand Final, or Sean Long after a clocking of the late Terry Newton.
On that note, you ask modern day players, they will say Newton is the toughest they have come across.
Another that u admire the steel of is Petero Civoniceva. Runs all day, gets everything thrown at him, yet still wins the ruck and gets up smiling. Never seen him lose his rag or blow up at the referee, top class prop and a fantastic attitude'"
I phrased it badly, I meant an injury and then played on. Wellens' and Long's were definitely worse but they went off the pitch.
