Doddie Weir: Obituary for iconic Scotland and British and Irish Lions lock - BBC Sport bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/…

SO SAD to hear about Rugby Legend Doddle Weir 💙 a true champion and such a lovely kind human being RIP Doddle 🙏 SO NOW COME ON GOVERNMENT - cut all “Red Tape” 😳and give the so called “promises” of funding of £50 million over 5 years. NO MORE DELAYS PLEASE 🙏
What happened last night is not an isolated incident, it is one we see repeatedly and will continue to see until the governing body is forced to change.

I see HIA at its worst again. Player not removed when clear brain injury. How can medics allow him to play on? Winning should not be at all costs!
“Progressive Rugby respectfully require answers from @wallabies after a player who exhibited category 1 symptoms of brain injury (Nic White) was not permanently removed from the game between Ireland and Australia on…1/2

And on and on it goes. Rugby medics still unaccountable 10 years after claiming ‘honest, we didn’t know consequences’. The lies are stacking up.
Let’s be honest mens test Rugby is totally fucked - a brain trauma machine . When will someone shout stop. Nick White WTF? Couldn’t stand and he’s brought back on. #irelandrugby

……19th November, 2022. White, clearly unsteady and dazed, instead underwent a HIA and was returned to the field. This is unacceptable and further deepens our concern about the HIA protocol and whether it is fit for the purpose of properly protecting players.”

It’s a shocking decision considering what had seemed like growing understanding of the risks and damage of brain injuries…. Worrying message to the volume of under age players watching that happen tonight.

Rugby's legal case will hinge on whether it can be shown on balance of probability that bashing your head (brain) repeatedly can heighten risk of long-term neuro-degenerative problems and extent to which senior administrators knew this. So the causation "debate" is a sideshow.

Dear @NFL,
You must do better. This is life or death. What happened to Tua can’t happen again.
A message from our CEO:
This case - in a country that doesn’t have class actions - is a huge step. Players deserved better. Players were failed by the game #rugby

This is bad. Tua should not be cleared to return after this after his head hit the ground and he stumbled after he got back up. #concussion
