Bit of both . Probably in the order you’ve put it in . Not too sure about the HIA one though as it give NSW a free fresh set of legs .
The players wellbeing nothing more nothing less.
This. 100%
Don’t be so sure fellas . I know it’d be nice to think rainbows and unicorns , but Alfie is from an era where they would’ve almost killed each other to win State Of Origin . Firstly yes , he was caring for the player , but once he knew it was a mild concussion and the guy wasn’t gunna die you’d have to be pretty niave to rule out Langer looking at Cordner with one eye and looking at the whole in our defence with the other . Especially when they’re losing .
Personally I think Alf did us a massive favour. If Cordner gets back in that defensive line there's every chance they run at him and every chance he misses the tackle
Definitely player wellbeing. Cordner didn't know where he was or what day it was. If you watch the replay Cordner is knocked out and his arms go stiff. No chance he wasn't concussed.
All of the above. there's no doubt Boyd needed to come off, and NSW were probably better off with a fit player on the field, but you can imagine QLD would have wanted to see the back of him.
I’d say first and foremost that Alfie was thinking of the well being of Boyd Cordner.
Think he was just being a decent bloke, he seen Boyd got fucked up and attended to him. He definitely made sure to relay the point he was concussed, and you can debate the motives about that, but end of the day it was ethically the right call.
