You’ll be doing well to find anything more hideous than David Pocock’s horrific hand surgery pic

Unsurprisingly, he's out of the Rugby Championship

If you’ve just sat down to eat a nice meal, we won’t give out to you for being a wimp and briskly leaving this article.

No? Ok, you’re either brave, foolish or what’s more likely, a mixture of the two for continuing thsi endeavour. Before we hit you with the reveal, we’ll it you with a bit of background information.

David Pocock is expected to miss another month for recovery to heal his broken hand. This will mark a huge blow for the Aussies as their 60-cap back-rower won’t be available for the Rugby Championship.

Pocock was taken off injured during the Wallabies 36-20 win over Argentina in Perth, and he’s already received surgery on said hand. As if in some sort of effort to get all of his followers on social media to see their lunches again, Pocock shared an image of the surgery on Twitter.

Gruesome doesn’t do it justice.
