We are finally moving towards a national strategy on concussions in sport. Will the government and sports bodies now act? https://t.co/sYqpdbOWSf via @ConversationEDU

In a landmark Senate report, the government was urged to take a greater role in overseeing compliance of concussion rules across sports leagues. Details, however, were in short supply.

@davemcardle Indeed, David. And FIFA is fantasising in the same way as the IOC. As I discuss here:

Starry-eyed claims such as “the World Cup brings down cultural barriers” simply do not stand up to scrutiny.

A story too often told by athletes "we have no trust in the sport system". Hence the call for a third-party judicial investigation. @Gym4ChangeCan @TimeforchangeB1
I asked one of the plaintiffs in this case why they didn't file a SafeSport complaint with Water Polo Canada. "Why would we?" she said. "We made formal complaints. Nothing happened. We have no trust in the sports system." More on this story tonight on @CTVNationalNews.

@NHS online 2019 "Causes of #CTE Any prolonged activity that involves repeated blows to the head or recurrent episodes of concussion is thought to increase the risk of getting CTE." "The only way to prevent CTE is to avoid repetitive head injuries." https://t.co/268tNitb79

Important ingredients in the #sport #concussion discourse happening atm.
Getting wiser is a combination of humility and diligent curiosity. Without the first, the second is useless: You won't truly learn anything.

There's a lot to digest in this 260 page report.
afl.com.au
An independent review has found the AFL's concussion guidelines are sound, but a long-running research project was under-resourced and a key research adviser was guilty of plagiarism
