Elliot Yeo needs a trips to the dentist after this brutal collision...

We all know how tough Aussie Rules can be at times with some massive hits going in during a game but the "ouch factor" was taken to the next level over the weekend when West Coast Eagles midfielder Elliot Yeo had his two front teeth knocked out. Yeo missed a pretty straightforward mark and turned into the Collingwood ruckman Jarrod Witts who crashed into him. The collision is so hard, Yeo's teeth are knocked clean out. The slow motion footage is pretty grim. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaiQ63kosFA The player, trainers and officials didn't manage to find the teeth but AFL.com.au confirmed that Yeo's roots remained in his mouth and they can be capped. Yeo's West Coast teammate Sharrod Wellington took the piss out of him almost immediately. We can only imagine how sore that had to have been but at least Yeo saw the funny side of it.   We know it's hardly ideal but on the brightside, that's two euro from the tooth fairy.
