[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 971937, member: 45598"] We're discussing high tackles here, concussion is the most obvious concern and a common result of illegal hits like this. In the vast majority of cases any single concussion isn't going to have long term effects, CTE is the result of multiple concussions earlier in life, so in a sport where there are plenty of ways within the rules to get yourself a concussion or give someone else one (all accidental of course) why on earth would we go easy on an illegal action that can result in concussions?
