Sorry (a wakey fan here) but this kid should not have been put back on the park tonight.

Not withstanding Saints ran 2 tries past him we have now seen him on 3 occasions in a pretty scarry place.

If you were a boxer you would not be allowed to fight..

Sorry. but for his own safety this lad needs a long break.

There is something not quite right there.

:?

Why does he need a long break? He banged his head on a knee tonight. That can happen to anyone.

Also if the medical staff say he is OK then I have to say that I trust their judgement. As you wernt with him when he got the knock then I would be surprised if you knew just how "bad" it was.

He walked off too didnt he!

I don't understand why Leeds seem so desperate to bring him back in at the moment, it's not like they would struggle in most games without him anyway.

He's clearly not 100% and that was before he tried to tackle Long's knee. If they reckon he is fit enough, why not protect him a bit by having him defend on the wing?

It is happening too often too the kid.

Don't get me wrong,love him as a player,but seeing him now on numerous occasions totally out of it is not a great place to witness.

Tonight thought Bluey was totally wrong to send him back on especially so soon after te Manly game.

Just look at the front pages to see what a simple bump on the head can do.

Watch the footage back it was a routine tackle on Long, yet the lad was out cold, even the Saints players looked concerned.

Also by the way Bailey's a disgrace to your colours.

Not only do I dissagree with the Burrow part of the post but WTF are you having a go at Bailey for? He did nothing wrong tonight and had a decent game IMO. The hit on Faasavalu was great and 100% legal. The tackle where he dropped to the floor was OK too. He never landed with the elbow and just dropped with the shoulder. In fact after rewatching the game Bentham called 1st and then when Cunningham came running he he decided to defuse the situation by taking the easy option and blowing for a penalty. Also If Saints fans are annoyed about Roby's shirt then maybe they should get the club to have a word with Puma about a better material.

All these head injuries will affect him later in life, no doubt about that...being knocked out twice in two/three weeks is pretty serious...one head injury too far, let's hope not..

I remember when Veivers was at Saints years ago and got a heavy concussion attempting to tackle Des Drummond.

Following on from that he was constantly getting knocked out in matches

I suspect something similar may happen to Burrows , in that as soon as he gets a heavy challenge, his brain will go into gaga land.

You see similar things with boxers. Once they have suffered their first knockout, they tend to develop a glass jaw.
