User:138.217.96.192 - you keep wanting to insert that it is amazing that Backwell won the Magarey Medal after having his finger amputated. I am not sure why it is "amazing" that he should play well after having his finger amputated. He has stated at the club that it was far harder playing in 2005 with the constant pain and also his wrist bearing the brunt of efforts to mark the ball without contacting his finger. His major medical issues in 2006 were in fact a back injury and nothing to do with his finger (or lack thereof). Before we get into an edit war you might want to enlighten why it is "amazing". A source or citation would be handy (no pun intended). Pudgey 10:26, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
