    I watched last nights game over breakfast this morning. I hadn’t seen the previous weeks incident either. Both had a similar mechanism of his head slamming back into the turf and a reasonable rate. 

    Last weeks would have raised some clear red flags about concussion risk to me and he should have been pulled from that game at that point. 

    Second impact syndrome is a real risk and can have very poor outcomes. I would like to think Tua is rested for several weeks now to allow full recovery.

    One of the reasons I have given up on rugby is the lack of caring about head injury at the social level I was playing at. I had argued with refs and teams about not letting players carry on with head injuries during games only to be told ‘they said they are ok’.

    And that is why Tua should not have been playing tonight. My prayers are with you
    Absolutely appalling treatment by his team.  After the way he got up from the previous hit only four days earlier (back injury my arse), there's no way he should have even been in sight of football field, let alone playing.

    I've got family commitments on the South coast this weekend so unfortunately going up to London wasn't an option. Hope you guys who are attending have a fantastic time. Skol.

    You going for the pre game party at the Barrowboy & Banker Saturday evening @1StevieG? 
    Didn’t know there was one. I would not have been fit enough anyway as I have picked up an injury so taking it easy at the game today.

    A close game unfolding. Two point lead for the Vikings late in the third quarter.

    Crazy finish! Vikings win 28-25 after the Saints kick to tie the game bounces off the post and the crossbar and out.

    Really enjoyed the patriots game but got a lot of stick of my mates who follow nfl saying that’s basically following man united and there stadium isn’t all that will pick a nfc team to follow aswell so have 2 chances of making Super Bowl. 

    Am hoping to get over to Chicago next year so maybe the bears.

    Probably don't pick da Bears if you want a chance of making a super bowl.

    Patriots and United are a decent comparison to be fair!

    What. A. Game. I was at the other end when the Saints had the field goal to tie it and looked like it was going all the way until the double doink off the post and bar and safe.

    Argh just caught up on the Pats/Packers game, losing your backup QB so early and then having to rely on the 3rd string rookie for most of the game, away at Lambeau, and to take them to OT, I'll take it to be honest.

    Raiders are up and running. 

    Only our decade long redzone woes kept the woeful Broncos anywhere close.

    Tom Brady getting a divorce because he can’t retire from playing NFL is peak Brady.

    Anyone on here use NFL game pass? I want to pay the cost over four instalments which is a method they apparently offer, but I cant see that option when you try to sign up. Anyone know how it works?

    Yeah I use it and do the same thing - you need to sign up before the start of the season I believe as the first instalment is taken in August and then every (or possibly other) month

    Ah got it, looks like the instalments option disappears at the beginning of Oct. Just missed out!

    It was so awful, so bad that you had to keep watching to see what was going to happen next.
