Proof of CTE in players shows it's serious - make safety our priority

Proof of CTE in players shows it's serious - make safety our priority | NZ Warriors Rugby League | Scoop.it
From www.smh.com.au - June 27, 2019 8:42 PM
The announcement that deceased rugby league players suffered from degenerative brain disease will, at the least, make the game safer for future generations.
Peter Mellow's insight:
I love sport. Grew up with both Rugby's, Union and League. Played myself until I left school. My sons have played, but I'm glad that them don't now. This is serious, and I am torn as perhaps I should not watch Rugby League now, knowing that some of the players are going to have health challenges down the road. Perhaps it is time to retire these sports as we have the gladiators and bull fighting.

Why NRL clubs need to play at big stadiums

Why NRL clubs need to play at big stadiums | NZ Warriors Rugby League | Scoop.it
From www.smh.com.au - March 15, 2014 10:27 PM
Is it any wonder Sydney teams are finding themselves faced with the dilemma of leaving historical suburban home bases to play in the larger stadiums?
Peter Mellow's insight:

Usually I don't agree with much of what Phil Gould writes, but this piece hits the spot for me. Some real lessons the NZ Warriors could take notice of. :--)

Rugby league player Russell Packer jailed as Australia confronts alcohol, violence

Rugby league player Russell Packer jailed as Australia confronts alcohol, violence | NZ Warriors Rugby League | Scoop.it
From edition.cnn.com - January 8, 2014 9:52 PM
A rugby league player has been jailed for a drunken assault in Sydney, amid national soul-searching over the prevalence of alcohol-fueled violence in Australia.
Peter Mellow's insight:

"(In Australia), you would be forgiven for thinking you can't be successful in life, you can't be successful with the opposite sex, you can't be a successful sportsperson, unless you drink."


Steve Hambleton, president of the Australian Medical Association

IF last Sunday night’s Channel 7 interview with Ian Roberts didn’t change your opinion on the impact of concussions and what direction the NRL need to head to ensure player welfare, then you have no place in the modern game.
