Has Tom banged his head again on the ground, ?

Concussion it seems like, really feel for the lad. His luck is terrible

Looked like he was walking about the pitch at the end of the match so hopefully not too bad and he just misses a game and rests up.

Think it’s time he wore some type of headgear like BJB wore - wouldn’t that help?

No.

The science shows that headgear has zero influence on the effect of rugby collisions and concussion.

In fact, it suggests that wearing headgear increases the occurrence of head injury, as it creates a "halo" effect (illusions of invincibility).

Correct. It simply protects from cuts and scrapes.

Unfortunately, his concussion rate will be the thing that stops him reaching his full potential. He'll be a great club player but he'll be limited at International as Wane will go for someone like Hall for fear of a head knock for Tom.
He should have a bag full of caps and tries for England in a fair world.

I’ve just seen on the highlights how Tom received the injury. It was in the build up to wolves only try second half. He came in to tackle the man who appeared to spin out of the tackle and lift his forearm to shrug off Tom, I have to say it’s not conclusive, built might be referred to the MRP on Monday.

It was Williams who strikes him fending him off , the disciplinary will judge whether it was intentional or accidental I would suspect . For me watching it back it looked like an innocuous fend , but they never played it back to get a better picture .

Vasty...do you wear headgear by any chance ???





(Sorry mate...couldn't resist that one !!!)

Course he does.....

Won’t fit over my crown you idiot

Tom reports (twitter) that he's fine and not suffering any after effects.

Great news
