Just dropped Just dropped an conscious/unconscious Nick (eldest boy) off at hospital with mum & girlfriend after he got knocked out at rugby again! This is the second time this year and at least the tenth time we know about (he often hasn't told us I'm sure) he has been KO'd the physio at the club is indicating he will not let him play again EVER unless he can get a thorough all clear from a specialist now.
I don't want to see him come to any harm but this is a lad that lives for rugby above all else and it would devastate him if he couldn't play anymore... I expect he will be in overnight and another scan but there is little they can tell except to reassure no immediate danger. It is tough, apparently this was nothing more than a regular tackle and nobody even spotted a bang on the ground, I don't know as I wasn't there. 22 is no age to end a career though, he has been playing since he was just 4.
