Twitter concerned as Farrell misses four kicks following heavy blow to head

Farrell took an early hit to the head against Argentina.

Argentina’s mission against England became extremely difficult when the Pumas lost lock Tomas Lavanini to an early red card for a dangerous tackle on Owen Farrell.

Yet while the red card obviously hampered 14-man Argentina, some felt England also paid a heavy price.

Farrell came in for criticism after an uncharacteristically quiet performance, where he missed four half half kicks, three of which came after shaking off that Lavanini tackle.

Yet social media felt Farrell shouldn’t have even stayed on the pitch, which people questioning why the player wasn’t withdrawn for a Head Injury Assessment (HIA) after taking such a heavy blow to the head.

There is no indication that the player was concussed following the Lavanini tackle, but the fact that he wasn’t checked for concussion left some viewers concerned.

It was the first time that Farrell missed four kicks in a first half since September 2012.

While his poor kicking may have just been coincidence, the fact that Farrell did not have a HIA opened the door for people to question why he wasn’t checked for concussion, raising concerns over player welfare.

Farrell played the full 80 minutes and kicked three conversions and one penalty in the second half.

I got a call from a trader for the first time in August 2024. Less than a year later, through a fabricated process of baiting me with unbelievable profits, and matching my losses, I was in over $185,000. The platform had assigned my personal broker to me, that called me from time to time to tell me about their new offers. And they said he was one of their top brokers, they further told me the broker had made a lot of people so rich. The broker told me there was an insurance that they get on them, every trade that we do that's secured and we could never lose money, he will put in there that it's an insured secure trade, and they buy the insurance for it. so i was assured, I won't lose any money on if we lose. Okay? But the catch is, you have to bring in an additional $25,000 in order to get that secured trade status on your account. I stupidly did this. Once I hit a certain profit level, I tried to remove money from them. That's when they denied me being able to take out my own money. They also told me to pay an additional fee to bring out my money. I was blocked out of my accounts and denied withdrawal even after i contacted them in various ways. Of course they never told me that additional of $25k from the beginning. So when I heard that, then it was pretty obvious to me that they were running a scam.I was very sad and confused after investing a lot. Earlier this year February 15th 2025, i was able to get my invested capital back including profit and the $25k additional fees with the help of the INTELLIGENCE CYBER WIZARD Assets Recovery (You can contact them below).
