Paul Wood is an English professional rugby league footballer for Warrington of Super League. Wood played for Warrington in the 2010 Challenge Cup Final victory over Leeds. Paul Wood has continued to feature for Warrington during 2011 but his season ended early due to injury. During his long career at Warrington he has gained a reputation for hard graft but more recently has brought an increasing number of off-loads to his game During the 2012 Stobart Super League Grand Final, Paul Wood ruptured his right testicle after getting kneed in the groin, one minute into the second half. He continued to play, made a number of tackles and even conducted media interviews in the dressing room after the match without mentioning it. It became public knowledge only when he tweeted a couple of hours later that he was heading for hospital for surgery and he confirmed early on Sunday morning that his right testicle had been removed. [More at Wikipedia]
