In a region here in New Zealand they are implementing this coming season (for amatuer rugby) a Blue Card;(given like a Red or Yellow Card) which can be given to any player showing signs of concussion.Referees have been given concussion guidelines to follow; and the player must leave the field. He/she cannot return for that game and must be checked by a doctor before being allowed to play again. Hopefully this might stop these guys getting to this stage!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
