what a stupid statement! How can you compare the helmets worn in those sports to the ones worn in the various footy codes
NFL players still get concussed even with their extra protective gear so CK does have a point to some degree
I think the stupid comment made was that helmets don't help, they just make it worse. Ridiculous.
the ones worn by afl/rugby player have been proven to not help concusions. union players only wear them to protect their ears.
on bell though, having spoken too a good mate who plays for melbourne i think he is well and truely within his rights to get compo. says he is a space cadet too talk too. which wasnt always the case, also look at all the BS compo claims from everyday mugs in the workplace. ive seen at least 5-6 vids of this blokes getting his bell rung! (
sorry couldnt hellp it) also, good on Melbourne footy club for handling it so well. they seem to be doing a lot right at the moment (besides getting belted on the w/e) although, maybe should have stopped him playing earlier from some reports!
