Wednesday 27 August 2025: Professor of Neuroscience at AUT Doug King on the awareness of head injury impacts in sport

On Sports Fix with D'Arcy Waldegrave for 27th August 2025, in light of the sudden passing of ex-Māori All Black Shane Christie, a strong advocate for speaking on the impacts of head injuries in rugby, D'Arcy speaks with specialist Doug King on the impacts of concussions.  D'Arcy speaks on the criticism of the Women's Rugby World Cup expanding to 16 teams. And D'Arcy and Sky Sport broadcaster Jeff McTainsh discuss the All Blacks allowing 16 players to play NPC rugby this weekend and the Panthers resting 16 players as their Top 4 hopes have disappeared.
