A player in the NFL (think it was a Raiders player) was banned for the year last week for a helmet to helmet tackle and a QB got knocked out cold last night after another helmet to helmet clash.
Who knows, they might look at getting rid of helmets at this rate.

If you'd read any of the research on CTE in sport (especially the stuff related to the NFL) then you'd realise the helmets provide no protection from concussions.
Why engage or bring up a topic if you haven't read up on the science behind it?'"
I am trying to discuss the subject and asking questions. Is that ok or do i need a special license from you and your clique?
At no point have i tried to pretend to be an expert and im pretty sure you are not an expert either. |

Well i mean the NRL wear helmets and you have to wear an helmet on a motorbike so i am guessing that they do offer some protection from head injuries. I know i would rather clash heads with somebody with an helmet on rather than no helmet. |

Perhaps a redesign of the helmets to have soft padding on the outside to cushion the impact? |

So far above my pay grade it's untrue, they were just two awful impacts.
It was the Pittsburgh QB last night, he was out cold before he hit the floor, imagine a boxer catching someone on the sweet spot and that's what it looked like.
The Raiders player last week was lunacy, check the video above, no surprise he's been kicked out for the season (without pay as well). |

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif |

When people say knocked out before they hit the floor, you are knocked out the moment your brain jolts. If someone gets hit and isn’t knocked out before they hit the floor then they’re not knocked out, they’re pretending, probably footballers. |

What side of the field does harry rushton play? Everytime I’ve seen him he’s been a real handful and could be the answer to our right second row problems
