aim carrying england five gone happened holding knee means minutes next playing run stop swelling tidy tight whatever
I didn't know how it was going to go. Carrying on playing means the swelling is going up and down. It could have gone in the first five minutes or the warm-up. Whatever happened I had to play before the England game. My next aim is to get the strapping off, because it's holding my knee in place and is so tight I can't run tidy with it. It will take more than this to stop me playing.
