[QUOTE="james5000, post: 968159, member: 53353"] You don't just get head knocks on the field or from opposition tacklers. Going through that list there were a couple that got injured in training and having a head clash with a team mate? Does anyone think these rules will eradicate concussion? I'm going to say they probably won't even reduce the number of concussions. If we want to stop concussion we need to go to ripper rugby for all levels, or maybe a form of touch rugby. Rugby as we know it is a contact sport, players at the highest level train too hard and play too much. The body wasn't meant for that kind of punishment. [/QUOTE]
