[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 1144948, member: 73592"] There are other, better threads for discussion this, but it's not about elimination - that's simply not possible in a contact sport, it's about mitigation and education on the risks. You do what you can, then you let people make informed decisions. Standing up in court and saying "we knew, but decided not to do anything about it" isn't good enough. Standing up in court and saying "we knew, but decided only to tinker with things that wouldn't make a difference" isn't good enough. Standing up in court and saying "we knew, we introduced laws to minimise and mitigate, but didn't apply them" isn't good enough - this seems to be the stage we're at currently, and why the likes of Kriel, Biggar, Sigren etc need to be sited. At least then we can say that we didn't see it in real time, then we looked at it, and took appropriate action - even if the appropriate action is "should have been a yellow, no ban" You have to go through the process, and show willing. The minutiae detail - that's for us, because we're all rugby nerds [/QUOTE]
