“...not a real contact sport anymore imo...And they wont fix the concussion issue until the helmets are redesigned either.”


For the last couple of years I’ve been watching Premiership Rugby from England. It most definitely a contact sport, no commercial breaks and they don’t wear helmets, so they don’t use the head as a weapon. And when the game is over, the players shake hands.

Yeah I catch rugby occasionally. One great thing about it is the lack of overpaid thugs bemoaning racism in their country while insulting it at the same time, all the while collecting hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars a year.
