'obviously concussed' player allowed to play on at twickenham - ruck

CONCERNING VIDEO FOOTAGE CAPTURED WALES PLAYER TOMAS FRANCIS LOOKING OBVIOUSLY CONCUSSED IN THE MOMENTS AFTER A BRUTAL HEAD COLLISION AT TWICKENHAM YESTERDAY. A clear and flagrant breach of

HIA protocol in the words of _Progressive Rugby_, who are a rugby union lobby group working to achieve a safer and healthier game. The tighthead prop initially remained on the pitch before

eventually being removed for an HIA, which he duly passed before returning to the pitch around 10 minutes later. However, under current laws, any player who shows visible signs of balance

disturbance/ataxia after a head blow should be removed immediately and permanently from a match without an HIA. TRENDING STORIES 5 STARS WHO UNDERPERFORMED IN ROUND THREE OF THE 2022 SIX

“An erratic display, not for the first time. His aimless kick allowed Dupont space for the opening French try. A dropped ball as Scotland attack and bounced by Danty in the build-up to the

visitors’ third score. On the back foot for the second half and hooked after an hour.” Embed from Getty Images CONTINUES ON PAGE 2 -------------------------
