Just doing a survey at the moment, whilst referencing the NSWRU, and also the SS - how many of our readers and posters were aware of the following starting today, if so how did you hear about it?;
Not me, though I kept searching.
Again - the people in charge of promoting our game are soooo off the pace that it is embarrassing.
I listen to the ABC coverage of Rugby League regularly because when I am driving I have no other choice (except how to think about refugees, climate change, same sex marriage, the opinions of NGO's, Human rights commissions and etc).
They (5 kick) are so far ahead of us in their commitment to kids playing and the development of those same kids.
It is not a matter of money nor inducement only.
We have a vastly more challenging and enjoyable game.
But, when I was watching the the games at the the Aussie Schoolboy's I went up to the top oval at Riverview to see the Loyd Mcdermot, Tassie, Northern territory etc play. I was unfortunate enough to sit in the same place as the selectors, coaches - the flash spray jacket brigade.
They mocked, joked about, and seriously ridiculed those kids.
I thought - what the hell? You jokers have done nothing to be here except play politics, suck up to each other, leave the kids you are mocking (yep, they knew their names) behind for your personal Kudos.
I cannot begin to tell you how pissed off I was about those spray Jackets!
You want an accountable, responsive, NSWRU. cull the elitist and self selecting spray Jacket brigade.
The old leather patch elites at least performed.
