This sport is not safe at all. maybe we need to check if it is right for school kids to play the sport, maybe we need to put an age limit.

@Papage, I agree with U but only to an extent that we are referring to SA. Other countries with this sport are not experiencing the violent behaviour that SA is experiencing from rugby players. While most of U can quickly recall what Bees Roux did, many have forgotten what the five members of Noordelike Rugby Union did to a young fellow called Tshepo Matloha.
The people playing this sport are very violent even when U catch the same lift with them in these university buildings they might slaughter U.
