NSW Origin side 2010

From the SMH today (sorry, won't let me post a link, but you'll find it on leaguehq): Bird locks in his surprising case for Blues selection - as a back-rower Even Greg Bird thinks Greg Bird should not play 5/8 for NSW! Of course, knowing our selectors, that's all they need...

Fensom

I'm sure the team doctor knew what he was doing, but if Fensom actually went unconscious (even just for a few seconds) I would have thought they would have sent him straight to hospital for scans. There are too many horror stories about people who have had a head injury and felt ok after a few...
