Maybe don’t go any further if you’ve just had your breakfast.
Like many sports, Australia’s Rugby League likes to keep their fans entertained at half-time with lots of crowd participation, usually in the form of on-field games to amuse the other spectators as fans compete for a prize or two.
The Penrith Panthers laid on a game called ‘Big Ball Bash’ at half-time in a game at the weekend which challenged two teams of two to try and get a giant ball past the opposition and over the try line.
Of course, when the ref blew the whistle, the two teams flew at the ball, resulting in a fairly spectacular collision.

The end result? Well one guy had a dislocated shoulder but the other man, known only by his nickname ‘Shunter’, ended up with a fairly horrific broken ankle.
