Is Manu okay

[dice]

Manu reminding me of the powerlifters that tear hamstrings and calves whenever they do anything other than powerlifting. Too much strength and not enough flexibility. Two seasons in a row now. I hope he can work it out.

Apparently not. It seems he's not allowed to play.

I'm so sick of this ridiculous concussion bullshit. The damage to the brain occurs AT THE TIME of the hit. The damage is done, there and then. Taking 11 days off does not magically wind back time to before the injury. Whether he plays next weekend or has the week off makes NO DIFFERENCE to the damage incurred.

Why do we put up with this nonsense?

It's because suffering 2 concussions in 6 days is extremely dangerous to the brain they aren't trying to wind the clock back to unravel the damage they are trying to limit the damage done in a short amount of time. We put up with this nonsense because we aren't the ones on the field taking the hits and doing the damage to the brain so we should respect the protocols design to care for the men who hurt themselves for our entertainment.

Yes too much strength is the first thing one would think of when they see 192cm tall 98kg heavy Joseph Manu who can run 8km in an 80 minute game of footy

Yes being a weakling is the first thing one would think of when they see Manu drag several defenders over the tryline.

Oh what a load of group-think bullshit.

You buy the ticket, you take the ride.
