Let's just hope these are unrelated to not having game time and random as you mention...

Sounds like the turf they were playing on must have been rock hard, because it's rather freakish to break a bone in your foot, just by wanting to change direction. The same game noted that Rokocoko limped off with a rolled ankle.
These sort of injuries happen when people play rugby in summer, on baked pitches that haven't been watered properly. It happens every year, it happens in the NRL as well.
It's just a freak occurance, end of story.
