Rugby’s failings writ large in a few minutes. Two yellows which could easily have been reds for totally innocent head knocks AND Jamie George allowed back on despite obvious concussion symptoms. Rugby still blaming players and failing to look after them. Shameful
This week it’s been email after email about red-card hearings from the weekend’s rugby. The week before last it was 6 YEARS since the red-card wild west was unleashed. Concussion rates as high as ever. I’ve written so much about this madness I’m bleeding from the eyeballs

What a lovely piece, Roberto. A fine tribute to a great man. Great to sit with you & @mdmaylwin yesterday.
The spirit of Eddie Butler lives on. Because each and every time we hear the anthems or see an aerial stadium shot in the coming weeks, we will hear that voice and be reminded of the sport-as-art montages in which he specialised. By @robkitson theguardian.com/sport/2023/feb…

@DrAttwoodMJ Whilst the RFU mitigate themselves of risks involved with playing rugby and concussions. Don’t try and play me with the ‘surely you want less concussions talk’. I’m telling you I don’t agree with this.
@DrAttwoodMJ Cheers Doc but you can manipulate data for any narrative. I’m dealing in real understanding of contact situations - this won’t reduce concussions but it’s a step in creating more pressure on referees, local grassroots clubs and coaches…1/2

@picardonhealth @mdmaylwin @ObserverUK It’s definitely encouraging news after a string of setbacks in Alzheimer’s research. So sorry to hear about your wife’s condition, that must be very hard on you both. Hoping this research can be actualized soon.
Can't imagine the strain @mdmaylwin experiences when writing so much -- and so informatively -- about this issue, although he would doubtless say it's nothing compared to his wife's condition. That he can still talk of a "reason for hope" says much about a top man of my trade.
