Chad Wingard has some serious concerns about his head. Whether he was knocked out and carried off after the Hodge hit or whether he got straight back up and banged through a few goals is immaterial. The trouble facing the AFL in years to come will be from guys like Wingard potentially suffering delayed consequences of their head knocks. I thought we all knew this? I thought we all knew where bodies like the NFL are running into trouble already. This is exactly why the whole "He copped a leaner sentence because the guy got straight back up" is such a load of shit. Chad Wingard may go into a life threatening seizure one day after retirement because of that Hodge hit. We don't know. Luke Hodge should not have played another game in 2015 following that hit. One of the more malicious, deliberate attempts to maim I've seen on a football field in decades.
