Quote: rollin thunder "Next year might be my last season watching RL if this comes in, certainly won’t be committing to Season ticket or tv subscription.
Rarely have i seen a player knocked out in a general play from a hight tackle, I’ve seen far mire players knocked out making the tackle than in the receiving end. Deliberate late hits to the head yes, but players hardly ever ever get knocked out from what i’d call a run of the mill high tackle.
Bring this rule in and the game will haemorrhage fans.'"
None of us want to see life-changing injury to RL players. Have to say I fear we are trying to be too woke as a sport and have lost common sense as a result. Players accept the risks, as long as they are managed responsibly.
This legal action is a way off being successful. Proving negligence is going to be nigh on impossible - and even if they are then the ramifications will touch every single contact sport in the world.
