Sports Legends with Bevo - Ep #40 - Dr Mark Ralfe - Concussion dangers in the AFL
Description
Absolutely thrilled to have had Dr. Mark 'Ralfey' Ralfe, a highly respected sports GP, on Legends with Bevo recently.
Ralfey currently works at the Wakefield Sports and Exercise Medicine Clinic and has worked at several high level sports organisations including the GWS Giants, Cricket Australia, Australia Rugby, Australian Football Federation of Football plus more.
We delved deep into critical topics like concussion in sport and the urgent need for better head protection. We also tackled the rise of ACL injuries, especially among those over 50, and discussed whether AFL players might need to sign waivers in the future.
Plus, we explored why AFL could be more dangerous than NRL.
Don't miss this insightful conversation!
Thanks so much to Ralfey for giving up his time and to the team at Podbooth for putting this great video together.
