    Super Rugby's been forced to temporarily tweak its protocols around smart mouthguards following last weekend's confusion

    Super Rugby's been forced to temporarily tweak its protocols around smart mouthguards following last weekend's confusion


    A suspected Bluetooth issue in the Chiefs-Crusaders game in Hamilton forced players off the field several minutes after impacts occurred.

    World Rugby is working to resolve the issues - with more testing to come.

    From this weekend - starting tonight with the Blues against the Highlanders - until the issues are resolved, players will continue to wear the mouthguards but will now undergo a short check on the field before a doctor decides to pursue an HIA or not.

    SUPER RUGBY COVERAGE WITH HABIT HEALTH. TACKLING ALL YOUR ACHES AND PAINS FROM SPORT AND WORK.
