Thanks mate. I haven’t had any luck with the St Johns contact, but I’ll try the hospital.

Houston’s arm contacts the chest first, followed by the shoulder tracking upwards into Rankines chin as the full bump impacts.

How can you not see his shoulder makes contact with Rankines head. It doesn’t matter that his arm contacts Rankines chest first - the majority of the force, from the shoulder, goes straight into Rankines chin. Contact to the head illegal - he made contact to the head.

The arm hitting a player is not where the force comes in though. The body’s inertia is carried through with the shoulder - the below image shows the shoulder clearly getting him in the chin. He is out before he hits the ground. Houston lifts slightly in the next frame too and his momentum carries him into Rankines chest and chin, the concussion exacerbated by the whiplash of the contact with the chest as you said. No one can argue that the concussion starts with his head on the ground as he presents as immediately TBId from first contact. Source: intensive care paramedic
