Gutted for him as it's a crap injury to recover from as well. People definitely understestimate the overall healing time (which at 6-8 weeks is about right) as well as the rehab needed to get full range of motion/strength back too. Brother did his earlier this year and he was nearly 3 months off work - Compound fracture + corrective surgery to screw the bones back together.
Payne's a strong fit lad though, so hopefully there's no complications/surgery needed. 🤞
Wishing you a speedy recovery Payney.
