Judge criticises solicitor acting on behalf of players with brain injury lawsuits
The article discusses the criticism from the judge presiding over the brain injury lawsuits in rugby league and union against the solicitor representing the injured players. The judge, Senior master Jeremy Cook, stated that the solicitor, Richard Boardman, had been under a "misapprehension" about his responsibilities and seemed to have a problem with the English language. Boardman's firm, Rylands Garth, is representing more than 1,000 players across both codes, but the judge claimed that Boardman had failed to disclose material to the defendants, including World Rugby, the Rugby Football Union, the Welsh Rugby Union, and the Rugby Football League.
