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.
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?

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..
