"Boyd's been great. I know a lot of people have talked about it this week and the concern is there and we understand that - which is right - but he's been great," Robinson said.

"It was a discussion between the doctor, myself and Boyd," he said. "We knew what Boyd wanted to do but the doctor and myself spoke on Sunday and then spoke again on Wednesday and made that decision.
"He left it to us. We had to tell him what we thought from both our points of view and he accepted that.Robinson also made a point of responding to"I've been asked about that article and a couple of things I would say on that - I think Peter has done a very good job over the years about pushing his views on concussion and he's pushed sport on that - and I think that's been a very positive thing," Robinson said.
