| I wonder how it will impact on the one aspect of the game that sees a legal "off the ball" challenge? If two players are running, in the same direction, towards a loose ball, then a shoulder charge is allowed

[quote="The Reason":3e09qe5x]Hi Andy
The Rugby Football League are in the process of reviewing the video that you are referring to. We do not condone behaviour of this nature and have contacted the player’s employer, Hull F.C., who have confirmed that they are dealing with the incident under their club rules.

| Do we all agree that concussions are bad?
That a high number of concussions occur from shoulder charges?
Saying concussions can happen in any tackle is true but the chances of it happening is lower with out the shoulder charge.
Anyway it's happening because the NRL and other leading bodies got an expert opinion.

| The RFL board have today banned the shoulder charge from all RFL games with immediate effect.
It is not clear whether this filters down to NCL and local amateur yet.

| I can't remember the last injury from a shoulder charge, and I watched every single NRL game on Prem Sports last year (6-7 per week)? If it hits the head and is illegal then yes, it will be punished as a high arm or elbow is currently. Far more injuries are caused by the outstretched arm tackle, mainly to the tackler, I remember about a dozen players tearing biceps and pecs from the outstretched arm being bent back.
It's ridiculous to ban it, impossible to enforce fairly and will lead to so much confusion it will need another look at in a coupe of years. As someone else pointed out, when a player is diving in at the corner, is he now untackleable?
I dont know why they needed to bring a rule in for a problem which doesn't even exist??

| Quote: Mild Rover "As this article about the NFL shows, 'contact to the head' isn't necessarily the be all and end all of concussion either, and understanding of this type of injury is evolving.
Rugby is too dangerous to play then, full stop?
