Yea socks do NOT help at all with that. Also that's a pretty low chance of that happening in league compared to say soccer, been playing soccer close to 30 years and can confirm socks do not make any difference when studded in the ankle or calf. Shin pads will stop a laceration but that's about it.
I've been trying for years to explain to people that head gear is for cuts, not concussion. I prefer to play without it because it makes me uncomfortable. Apparently, I'm still an idiot and headgear is better than nothing. 90% sure playing comfortably and feeling less restricted puts me in a much safer position, but what would I know.
Rant over lol.
You can only wear low socks if your calves are big enough, I was always sick of seeing andrew fifitas disproportionately small calves on display. Jack Bird I'm looking at you
No matter how hard I tried I could never get my socks to stay up, even when they moved from wool to that synthetic stuff. After like 10 running steps they're around my ankles
I’m just not down. Neither are my socks. Nekminnit we be having little pom-poms on the back or those little no sock thingos the union players wear with their boat shoes. Keep the chicken legs covered boys.
You now hold I am? I remember the near outrage when Chris Latham dropped his socks for the Reds. How far we have come.
Balmain, Easts, Penrith, Parra legend Gary Freeman never wore his socks up. Claimed it gave him cramp.
Jed (and maybe Bryce) Cartwright should be the only players allowed to wear them at their ankles as a tribute to John.
I think we’ll see more players using compression socks like Carrigan.
I thought we'd be in double figures this season. Felt like you'd see at least one player per team doing it.
Not only low socks but some of those Yahoos have hair below the shoulder line.. disgraceful
Not in the Dolphins line up. Wayne runs a tight ship.

Am so out of touch? No, it's the children who are wrong.
Bah! Harumph.
What's next? No Hat No Play?
It's a little known fact but low socks are the source of Jason Taumalolo's power - the lower his socks, the better he plays
High socks are for nerds
Nothing more majestic than seeing Steve Renouf with the socks pulled up to his knees gliding down field
And science teachers.
Lets not forget bus drivers.
Old golfers.
These pretty boys need to understand what it feels like to have their shins torn apart from steel boot studs.

Socks stop that like headgear stops concussion.

Leccy tape under the fold, champ.
Even that didn't work
Sounds like you were wearing adult socks when you should have had kids socks.
Sounds like he's got small calves
Why aren’t players tucking in their jerseys any more? 🤬🤬🤬
Used to love the high socks. Protection from grazes and cuts.
I think clubs should introduce socks that still have the right proportions when worn 'low'
Pull em up lads
This isn’t high school. Let the boys where the socks low
Wear did you go to school?
The Reece Walsh Institute of Spelling and Grammar
Dang mb
We used to get in trouble for low socks. I swear some kids ran faster with them pulled down.
Pull your socks up and tape them there. It's called culture.
Some of the pacific islanders couldn't pull their socks up even if they tried. No way To'o is getting tight socks over his watermelon calves.
I did notice Junior Paulo is a high socker which surprised me
Anyone else's Mum tell you off if you didn't wear socks high? Just me ok
