Shane Williams: Rugby, Concussion and Me

60 mins BBC1 Wales Documentary

Wales and British Lions legend Shane Williams investigates the threat of brain injury in the modern game - from the grassroots to the highest levels.

As the strength and speed of rugby players increases, so does the risk of long term damage to the athletes.

Featuring interviews with leading medical experts, rugby players and coaches, this film explores the dangers and the benefits of playing the game. But as the evidence builds as to the extent of the dangers involved, Shane has to ask himself - is it all worth it?
