    It looked pretty serious at the time. They were treating him for about 10 minutes on the pitch and he was getting the gas too.

    Hope Aki stays away from Sexton on Saturday.

    The other way round surely... Aki didn't break all those Glasgow players, they broke themselves trying to tackle him!

    And Sexton is exactly the kind of player to get himself injured when tackling someone.The Leinster contingent in the Irish squad could drop considerably before Saturday is over.

    The fact that Sexton tackles high will probably benefit him, in injury terms, against Aki. The 3 players who had to go off after tackling him all went low. Although him going high on Aki won't be all that successful, could be similar to his attempt on Henderson last weekend.

    I wonder will Paddy powers offer odds on how many players bet injured tackling Aki :pac:

    According to Neil Frances (I know, I know) Russell was transferred to the neurological unit in Beaumont afterwards. That's very serious. Really hope he makes a full recovery.

    Glasgow have confirmed that themselves. Was sent from Galway to Beaumont but his condition has improved significantly and they expect him to be released by the end of the week.
    Beaumont is the main brain injury hospital in the country, it must have been very serious to send him there.

    Let's hope it's just precautionary

    I suspect it was precautionary as it was said no surgery was required. However it would seem to be a very severe concussion case
