Pickett Fined for Rough Tackle
i'm not familiar with wwe, so i looked it up.......and yes, i see what you mean "spear tackle" terminology in football i believe originated in rugby (both union and league) and here it is where the one tackled is lifted, turned upside down (to some degree, usually greater than the horizontal), then dropped or driven (like "spear") to the ground. A very, very dangerous tackle which can lead to concussion, broken neck or paralysis. this obviously is very different to the term used in wwe

Pickett Fined for Rough Tackle
nothing to do with 3-5m run up a spear tackle is where player being tackled is lifted off the ground (generally above the horizontal) and then head/shoulders slammed into the turf. nothing even remotely what kozzie did, tackling player front on then driving him backwards onto his rrrs it was a textbook great tackle and he should be applauded for it

Pickett Fined for Rough Tackle
it wasn't a spear tackle or even a semi-spear tackle if you want to see a spear tackle go and look it up on youtube for nrl wish everyone would stop calling it a spear tackle it was the sort of front on tackle mumford does frequently and un-penalised. you'd think mumford would be more dangerous than little kozzie. kozzie's so-called sling tackle was very marginal. surprised he got fined let alone paid a free-against (assuming this was the one he got fined for)

Don Scott Claims Hawks Cheated Salary Cap
you seriously think ato would get involved for a relatively small amount of unpaid tax for something 30-40 years ago i also don't think banks are legally obliged to keep account details for that long and i seriously doubt whether those tape backups would even be readable now

i'd still like for someone with contract experience to explain how injury payments (or not) are generally handled

let's hope norm has an answer maybe insurance plays a part? i'd be filthy if my income was reduced due to an injury while on the job

yes, of course it depends on how contracts are structured and hi-end players can more easily negotiate "safer" contracts. but your reply seems to indicate that injured players don't get match payments or some sort of equivalent? i would have thought that if players were injured in club activities (at least) they should receive some sort of match payment equivalent
