This looks nasty.

Former Newport Gwent Dragons, Gloucester, Wasps and London Welsh fullback the Martyn Thomas lined out for Welsh side Merthy this past weekend and had a day to forget.

Not only did his side crash out of the WRU National Cup semi-finals to a last-gasp try from RGC 1404 wing Sam Jones, he also got a battering off the rugby pitch of all things.

Thomas posted a gruesome image following the game of the dangers of 4G pitches, with his knees absolutely torn to shreds.

In fact a total of seven players were left with vicious wounds as a result of the surface. Check out Thomas’ below. Pretty horrific.
