Tackling concussion
Update: 2024-06-24
Description
What do Wally Lewis AM and Nic Berry have in common? Quite a lot, it turns out. Wally started playing rugby union before switching codes to rugby league, becoming a legend of the game. Nic kicked off in rugby league before his professional career in rugby union, first as a player and now as an international match official. Both have also experienced significant head knocks in rugby and, with the benefit of hindsight, are passionate supporters of QBI’s concussion research.
In this relaxed conversation, they share:
- What they love about the game
- Their experiences of concussion in professional sport
- How the game has changed in the past decade
- What’s been done to protect the players
- Why more awareness and research are needed
