A country footballer has broken his neck in a frightening head on collision. But he is thankfully expected to make a full recovery.

Lavington player Kade Stevens suffered a fractured C6 and C7 vertebrae after his head and neck were crunched in a front on bump.

Amazingly, Stevens was helped up and walked off the field, before being taken to hospital for scans.

(WARNING: Some may find this vision confronting)
