Rugby Players Adulated

Jumping in Pools Sports Coverage:

Seeing how the Joemeister is such a big rugby fan, this may amuse him:

New Zealand Prime Minister John Key shook hands with 120 rugby players without realising his arm was broken in two places.

He had been in pain since falling as he left a stage after a speech earlier in the day, but did not think his arm was broken as he could move his fingers.

The rugby awards event involved "about 120 handshakes with rather large rugby players," he told Radio New Zealand.

An X-ray the following day revealed two breaks, but no need for surgery.
