Yow Yeh, who suffered a horrific lower leg injury while at the top of his game for the Brisbane Broncos two years ago, announced his decision at a media conference in Brisbane on Monday morning.

BUGGER! What a horrible shame. He seems a very level headed young bloke who had enormous potential. That was one of the ugliest injuries I've ever seen (happenned at NIB). I thought at the time his comback chances were pretty slim.

Never like to see a player call it quits because of an injury but his was pretty horrific! Especially at his age and with bucket loads of potential.

Good luck to him in what ever he choses to do in future.
