Ospreys hooker Sam Parry has posted social media images of a gruesome-looking leg injury sustained playing against Worcester Warriors in the Challenge Cup.

The beefy hooker suffered a nasty ‘v shaped’ laceration under his knee, which saw him taken off at the 45-minute mark to be sewn up. He needed nearly twenty stitches by the end of it.

The 6’1, 113kg frontrower wrote: “Another good night with the fellas, some big character shown to come away with the win & 5 points. Even better having some Ospreys supporters there to cheer us on. Makes waking up with my leg stuck to the sheets worth while”

Parry had scored a try before half-time in what was a famous victory for the PRO14 side, which was a third from two European outings this season for the hooker.

The 29-year-old’s career has at times been bedeviled by injury, but excellent form has saw him brought into Wayne Pivac’s Welsh international camp in September, just 18-months after he was considered third to fourth choice at the Welsh region, which ultimately saw him loaned out to Bristol Bears in the Gallagher Premiership.

Since his return to the region from Bristol, Parry has forced his way back to the top of the hooker pecking order and his Wales call-up followed.

“To be fair, I probably let playing for Wales go and looked forward to playing for the Ospreys and putting everything into that. Luckily, I got my chance and hopefully I can build on that,” Parry said upon being called into Wales camp.

“It was about just enjoying the moment. I probably thought this had passed me by, but to get named in the squad was good. You do the training and you hope to get selected. Then I got named on the bench, so I was really excited about that.”

Forget Ireland, the All Blacks face the real alpha of Europe next

Actually you need to read my responses properly. The response on which you responded is actually aimed at CO, another responder. Go read my original response on Ben Smith's BS. He is a bloody joke, a wannabe. And so is any of that losers followers. If you talk crap all the time it try to clickbait like BS, then don't expect people to respect him.


Most people (not you of course) will never take him serious. We all see him exactly for who and what he is. Talking about victories for the French in 2017 and 2021. Most of those players isn't in the AB's team. In the game in the WC the AB's was fresh off a hiding from the Boks with their confidence so easy targets. Unsettled team with a coach that already lost his job. As if that is such a motivation, most players knowing under Robinson they will be dropped for his Crusaders players.


Not exactly the environment in which to claim WC honours. Yet, despite all that turmoil, that AB team that got thrashed by the Boks and lost to France, came back and made the WC Final. None of these things get mentioned. Oh no, that doesn't suit his narrative doesn't it? He needs to clickbait the SH teams as usual.


I'm not a violent man, not always, but that's a pathetic little worm I would break every bone in his body, and each sound of breaking bone would give me as much pleasure as a win for the Boks. I would record the sound of his breaking bones and use it as a new ringtone. That is how much respect I have for idiot clickbaiters like him.


Instead of proper articles like the rest out there, all he mostly dish up is tripe. He should change his name to Tripe Smith. That is a much better description of the weasel. Is that dissing enough for you? Next time, actually read to who my responses are aimed at and read their responses as to what elicited that type of response from me.


I don't usually strip myself for any response by you. I actually agree with most everything you usually say and I'm sure you would be a much better writer than BS, however, make sure you read to who and why the responses there is from various people before commenting. As for Lomu, he is one of the greats, despite not getting a WC trophy. I only had the highest regard for that man. What a player and what a human being he was.
