Forces'
The new GPS system which we wore during the Four Nations - attached to a
man bra under our shirts - consistently showed us that we were taking impacts
of 10 gs and upwards during a match.!
The gravity force of a car travelling at 100km/h that comes to a stop in 0.2
seconds is 14.2 gs. !
And we don't have airbags! !
