There's a belief official 'Run it Straight' events are trying to mitigate head injuries, but has risk written all over it.

Ryan Satterthwaite —a 19-year-old— has died after suffering a serious injury during a private version of the aggressive tackling game in Palmerston North on Sunday.

A championship league final has been blocked from Auckland's Trusts Arena.

Former Kiwis captain Richie Barnett told Mike Hosking the official events are a controlled environment, but heads can end up in the wrong space.
