Crazy that he was allowed to step onto the field after the shot he took in warmups. He was basically knocked out for a second. Storm might be able to seek legal compensation from Tonga for it ? Im not even sure if he'll play footy next year or ever again?

Extremely sad for Kaota, and devastating for him and his family.
This is a huge blight on the game and incompetency all round. How the heck could he be allowed to have played? There will be ramifications here and the NRL need to be v explicit (without coaches vested interests here) in defence and how tackles are done. We do not want touch footy / oz tag and head collisions will / can occur, but the need to be looking at this and making some calls on tackles etc.
Parents, particularly mums will start to turn off and not let their kids play.
I just saw the warm up hit and now I am quite upset. He was fed to the wolves
On-field it probably would have been cat1.Sending him out there was risky but leaving him out there was a terriblefailure in duty of care
Not removing him after the second hit is a disgraceful decision in and of itself. The third hit causing serious injury may see it rise to Criminal Negligence
I feel sick for the young man and his family
Absolutely Randy, very disturbing.
