Prison of Glass's helmet hit on #84 was pretty savage considering the guy had jumped up for the ball and was still coming down as he got
connected ,and then head hits the ground also
Ouch

Rugby leagues viciousness make it understandable how many of its players tend to gravitate towards professional boxing during and or after their league careers.
1. Boxing
2. Football
Hands down, Rugby players are tough but they are no where near as vicious as NFL football players. Football has to have special rules to keep guys from getting killed. Rugby players are great athletes but they don't have or need such rules.

American football is vicious but nowhere near as vicious as rugby league or union. AF has further been neutered with many rules protecting the already protected players, fair catch and roughing the passer are two of the many rules not present in League.
Hands down the most skillful, vicious and toughest football game of all would have to be State of Origin, where club team mates and sometimes family members try kill each other.

"When I came off the full game I played in Detroit, my head was ringing," the 27-year-old said in an interview with Triple M's Grill Team in Sydney.
"That was obviously my first time being out there for that long. Literally, it was hard to sleep. Your head, your neck, your shoulders, people don't realise that just because you've got a helmet on, doesn't mean it helps your brain or anything like that."
"Everyone does that. It is scary. For me, after that full game I played, I was like, 'I don't know how a running back can do that for 10 years.' It's some heavy hits."
"Your brain is still hitting your skull. The couple of head on hits that I had, they knock you about. The NRL is pretty endurance based, so you feel exhausted, but then the NFL, them hits, the impact that they have."
