TheEnchanter Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 How come there have never been games stopped in the past until this season and now there's been about 6+ games in recent weeks and two today where they have stopped the game?

No idea. Is it because players have spotted the incidents? Thing is, you are going to get a bunch of whackjobs making out that due to COVID/the vaccine there has been a rise in heart attacks/cardiac arrests because a couple have occurred during televised football games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEnchanter Posted December 1, 2021 Author Share Posted December 1, 2021 I just wondered if it was an actual rule change or protocol? I'm also concerned games will get halted every week now for things that don't warrant it. Say for example a bunch of losers having a scrap in the stands.

thommowl Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Isn't there supposed to be an ambulance on site so if an incident occurred don't they now have to wait until the ambulance is replaced. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game gets stopped when the clubs medical team helps a fan doesn’t it ? I presume the game can’t continue without the medical team being there for the players.

edmontonowl Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Maybe it's best to stop the game. That way medics attending the victim aren't abused and yelled at to "get out the way cuz we can't see" while they're trying to save someone's life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
