Quote: Nephilim "I've always thought that anyone attempting a shoulder charge is a coward. If they were so tough they'd actually attempt a tackle but they're too scared to really put their body on the line. I remember when Morley did one on Mcgilvary. A forward on a winger, it just makes the forward look like a chicken. What was even funnier is when McGilvary came back on after getting his head bandaged Morley stayed well clear.'"

NURSE! He's out of bed again!

Quote: knockersbumpMKII "It's why in union coaches and players have talked about refs penalising the outcome and the propensity for players to now stay down/feign a worse injury after contact as there's likely more of a chance of a penalty or even a player getting binned. When a player gets up quickly (a la Penny in the WCC) refs aren't taking the seriousness of what happened seriously enough.
The Penny one was fortunate not to result in serious injury..it's evidence enough that refs have and still do adjudicate on the basis of outcome rather than actually what happened..sad but true.'"


The Penny was in the WCC wasn't a shoulder charge. It was a classic WWE clothesline and technically not a penalty in RL because it wasn't high enough. It was directly across the top of his chest, only the daft spin in the air and mard reaction got a penalty for it.

I never mentioned shoulder charge but an arm swung in the direction of the upper torso is reckless and the outcome we see time and again with players having their heads knocked back from supposed 'tackles' (including Swinging or stiff arms) but it's all OK because it started on the upper arm/chest.
The prime reason why so many NFL players have committed suicide, the prime reason contact sports have higher numbers of early onset dementia is because of repeated head trauma's but it's all fine because that one time the swinging arm hit the chest/calvicle area instead.

Brain rotation injuries are caused where the skull rotates but the brain remains static, this happens in clashes in rugby all the time and not just from direct contact to the head, it's an excellent reason why the shoulder charge was outlawed aside from the fact it takes little skill to perform. Brain rotation injury or diffuse axonal injury is one of the main causes of PVS (permanent vegetative State), reducing strikes to the head or contact that are likely to strike the head through recklessness should be cracked down on more than they are currently. And if you think Penny's "mard reaction" was faked as you are clearly intimating you're a complete and utter know-nowt fool..

I'm surprised you haven't found that out from his previous postings.
