Geelong Scraps Secret Concussion Deal

Geelong terminated the controversial agreement with their unnamed player on Thursday after facing widespread criticism from the AFL Players' Association, former players, and coaches. The deal would have permitted the player, who has a history of concussion, to continue playing while the club was protected from future legal liabilities. xsportfeed.life

The AFL confirmed they did not approve of the arrangement, which required the player to sign a letter waiving some potential future legal rights. The termination comes amid growing concerns about player safety and concussion protocols in professional sports.
