    Frustration grows for injured Wallaby Cameron Shepherd

    WALLABY Cameron Shepherd has been a frustrated man for the past seven weeks.
    Shepherd's hopes of cementing his place as Australia's rugby fullback came to a screeching halt on July 6 when he suffered a horrific leg break in the Wallabies' 40-10 romp over France.

    Confined to crutches for the next six weeks, Shepherd realised he could no longer take the simple things in life for granted.

    ``The six weeks on crutches just felt like an eternity,'' Shepherd said.

    ``I couldn't do anything, I couldn't carry anything and life got a bit grim, but I'm out of that now, walking around and definitely looking forward to seeing a bit of improvement.

    ``At the moment I'm not pushing myself, the plan would be to come back for Super 14 next year and be fit and healthy by the time that comes around.''

    Watching on as his fellow Wallabies make their charge towards Tri-Nations success has been a bittersweet experience for Shepherd, who is still confined to a moon boot.

    Ah well, maybe if it gives his knee time to come good it will all be for the best.

    He didn't seem to down and out today.
    Maybe he could take up modelling while he's getting his knee back into perfect working form.

    Poor Sheps, definitely a set back for him but i think we all know that he is definitely Latho's replacement. A stellar 09 performance will definitely show Deans that if he had any doubts

    It sucks being injured but its probably even worse with all your mates off with the Wallabies or in the UK.

    Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    I heard it was the gay-blue shirt and the crap weather.

    The fair weather fans were an issue as well, so he came west to the state that carries the nation.
