You still haven't given any good reason why. Head injuries are treating more seriously, yet head challenges aren't. A total contradiction.

Possibly because head vs head nobody leads in with a head challenge carelessly ,recklessly and without expecting to connect with the soft ball .
The bigger difference with foot and head is neither player "leave their head in" "follow through needlessly" that can happen with the foot .
I'm not trying to compare deliberate fouls but those that are considered accidental injuries caused.

Rat hater than head challenges I'd rather you compare with goalkeepers leading with raised knees in the6yd box - these are never called fouls

So, a fractured skull - is it advisable for a player to ever play again or is that career ending?

far too early to have an idea
we don't even know what type of fracture or swelling issues etc

for now it's just about recovering from the initial injury

It hasn't ended Cechs.

It hasn't ended Cechs.

He's not really supposed to head the ball in normal play though

And he gets to wear protective head wear!

 

[bum_chinned_crab]

And he gets to wear protective head wear!

Wouldn't Ryan be allowed to?

He's not really supposed to head the ball in normal play though

But he can easily get the ball smashed into his face or a foot in the head during a one on one, or a clash of heads on a corner.

Terry had a full surgeons outfit in a bag but didn't want to put them on until he was sure Ryan was going to pull through.

I don't think studs are particularly dangerous. Might cause a bit of pain but no real harm generally. The issue with those rash tackles is more about the amount of force with a grown man's momentum flying into someone's outstretched leg. Never really understood the term 'studs up'. How can you possibly slide tackle without your studs showing?

By leading with the top of your boot? And what do you mean studs aren't dangerous? They snap legs.

It's quite incredible that people find the energy and incline to argue on a thread like this.
