<p>What makes it most dodgy is that the limp doesn't match the stated back injury. He limped like he had a foot or lower leg injury, but he didn't limp at all just after the line-out.</p>

<p>can have a sore back and limp...so who knows?</p>

<p>I dont know about you guys, but when I get a back twinge usually related to sciatica.. I limp.. but can also lightly jog. I also stand incredibly upright when standing still.. alot like the prop did. He didnt lift in a line out, run with the ball, tackle anyone, hit a ruck or push in a scrum. </p>
<p>Unless any of you lot are doctors who specialise in back injuries .. you are just making assumptions and accusations based on fuck all.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If you have a back twinge that is hampering you./.. you know what you REALLY don't want to do? Push in a professional rugby games scrum. You know what else is quite common... when you know you are going off.. you give up the charade of not being hurt. You stop trying to play through it, you stop trying to hide the limp and you just do whatever is most comfortable.</p>

<p>Condone it not, you've got to admit it all looks pretty suspect, well Dane Coles thought so and I'd take his version of it over any on here</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Jogging to the breakdown, getting talked to by 2 trainers and then limping off with a trainer as a crutch - yeah naaa</p>

<p>Yep, words of wisdom. It's settled. Nothing to see here. There is absolutely no evidence to suggest the Chiefs got caught partaking in a bit of gamesmanship.</p> -

<p>Adrenaline doesn't cause you to limp. Quite the contrary. Usually, adrenaline stops/postpones the pain signal from reaching the brain, where it's translated into a pain experience.</p> -

<p>It is just an accusation with incredibly shaky evidence at this stage. What part of what I said do you think is untrue? or irrelevant?</p> -

<p>Yes, multiple times. Not that I see the relevance of that question. This was not about whether back injuries (of whatever kind) can cause pain. It was about adrenaline.</p> -

<p>adrenaline masked the symptom (back pain, limp, whatever) and once he stopped, he could feel it, the trainer came over, he said bro, it hurts, but I can probably keep going, trainer says, nah bro, we are getting monstered, is better if you actually come off!</p> -

<p>You don't see the relevance of Sciatica to a player coming off the field for back pain? :think:</p> -
<p>Well the Chiefs have used that get out of jail card relatively early in the season. Still have Moody, Franks and the lads to face. Don't think you could do Golden Oldies twice in 1 season without raising eyebrows.</p>

<p>Okay, yes, I misunderstood your comment. It's quite possible that it happened that way. That's why I said it looked dodgy in a previous post, but that I would prefer to see footage of earlier in the game.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>By the way (and this is not a response to you taniwharugby), calling something dodgy doesn't mean an accusation; just that it does look suspicious and that there is a need to find out whether there is a reason for accusations.</p> -

<p>I don't care if he was injured or not, but it does raise a problem for the rest of the comp.</p>

<p>As a supporter of the team with the best scrum in the comp, I don't want this to happen to us every time we get a significant advantage at scrum time.</p>

<p>In our case I'd rather have the penalties and great attacking ball we get from our scrum platform.</p>
