Really, I thought it was a thread informing us of what had happened to Purtell. What gives you the right assume the position of arbiter of the parameters of the thread? My initial reaction was it was probably linked to the heat & why hadn't the RFL introduced drinks breaks as had happened before, as it was 31 degrees, given this could consequently have prevented Purtell's condition?

What the hell are you talking about you moron. it goes without saying I hope he gets well soon. Initially I wasn't fully sure of what his condition was, either way even if there is no link, then I don't think its an unvalid point. How is it out of order too? Prick.

You make a very good point. Linked to Purtell's heart attack or not, RL is an intensive game played in the summer months. It's been bloody hot this last week and it would make sense that when conditions are as they have been the game is played in quarters rather than halves. Yes, this might break the flow of the game a little, but that's a small price to pay to not see a player collapse on the field isn't it?

| I don't have any problem with drinks breaks if the powers-that-be think they are warranted, it's the suggestion that lack of breaks here did or may have caused Adrian Purtell's heart attack that I think is out of order. Especially when it's been specifically reported that what caused it was a blockage in an artery.
The question of drinks breaks should not be linked to Purtell's illness, and that's what's OT, but if you think it's fair to imply that the RFL did or may have caused it by not allowing drinks breaks, then carry on.

Agreed. Hope Adrian recovers well.

Yeah, but that's not what he said. He never implied the RFL were at fault, just that it would have been more sensible to have drink breaks for the players

| Wishing Adrian Purtell a speedy recovery. I hope he is able to grace our great sport once again.
Although not as serious as the Muamba incident, the potential was obviously there and as such I hope the reaction from the RL fraternity is as good as the support and reaction showed in fussball. ![CLAP eusa_clap.gif](images/smilies//eusa_clap.gif)
