Jones Escapes Break

Last updated : 26 February 2003 By Site Staff

Jones was thought to have suffered a broken leg when Wigan’s Tony *spit* Dinning went in two footed from behind with obvious intent on playing the man rather than the ball. Jones was stretchered off with a suspected broken leg but after going to hospital and having x-rays and tests Jones could see action as soon as next month. Jones explained on CreweAlex.net: "I was really worried immediately after the tackle because I couldn't feel my ankle. It just went numb"

Jonah escaped with bad bruising and will be out for the next few weeks, but weeks is better than months.

"It's a real relief. This morning I can walk ok and I came into training to get my ankle iced up"

Hopefully Jonah will recover quickly to terrorise them division two defences and take Tony Dinning to the FA to get a deserved punishment.
