Love this in terms of concussion prevention but if they really cared about trying to reduce injuries then the 6 again rule would be removed…

BREAKING: the ABC is reporting the NRL has capped contact in training in a bid to reduce injuries, including concussions.
New guidelines will limit the minutes of contact in both in-season and pre-season training sessions to:
- No more than 100 minutes on a regular seven-day turnaround for the NRL and 85 for the NRLW
- No more than 40 or 50 minutes of contact on a five or six-day turnaround.
- No more than 200 minutes of contact per week for men and 115 minutes for women during the preseason
