Awful news, my thoughts to him and his family.
And my son wondered why I wanted him to stop playing Rugby League.

what a mess. For some reason he ducked and put his head to his chest when he got rammed into the ground. Not the tacklers fault, not anyone's fault just a damn shame for him and his family.

I played about 230 games in all of Aussie Rules. I just consider myself lucky that I got through being able to still run and kick the footy with my kids.

I don't follow Rugby League at all but I really feel for this poor guy, terrible news.
