Bruce apparently refused to accept Muzzy's knee wasn't right and continually got him to train and try and play on it. It turns out a small piece of bone had chipped off and was floating around in his knee, every time he broke down was due to the piece of bone puncturing his knee joint. Once he was referred to a specialist, he had 6 punctures in his knee joint, the surgeon could have repaired one or possibly two of the wounds but not six. He was advised to retire or run the risk of his knee finally giving up all together. Therefore Muzzy's view is that if he had have been reffered straight away rather than just being hurried back each time he would still be playing now.
