[QUOTE="RedruthRFC, post: 1149097, member: 58362"] This isn't a simple situation like a GP telling their patient to stop smoking or lose weight - there's a more parties involved. FFR (his employer) have a duty of care over their employees. Selecting him to play in the knowledge that he's been advised not to sounds like a failure to exercise this duty to me. Also, as has been noted above, there's every chance that FFR's insurers would require best medical advice to be followed when managing injuries. Out of interest, what are the potential consequences of him playing before he's deemed to have healed sufficiently? [/QUOTE]
