Rugby player wins compensation over 'revenge' tackle which left her with permanent spinal injury
A rugby player who sued an opponent over a "revenge" tackle, that left her with a permanent spinal injury, has won a compensation case at the High Court.
As Reading began to dominate the match, Ms King urged her teammates to "smash the number 7", referring to Ms Czernuszka, the High Court heard. Mr Justice Spencer continued: "The defendant simply gets up and walks away towards her own try line - she shows no concern for the claimant whatsoever. "Learning to live with my life-changing injuries has been difficult and something I could not have done without the support of my family and close friends.
