I have only been wrong once and thats because I thought I was wrong but I was wrong I was right! Petty authoritarians aren’t man enough to challenge the actions of a person face to face; instead they incite a forum of rumour, innuendo and half truths, and impose rude sanctions to discourage those who dare question fairness.

Quote: The Glorious League Freak "Yes because we are playing by SUCH different rules.
You can whinge on all you like, but playing different interpretations of "play the ball" makes a huge difference. Even high profile Aussies complained about how slow your play the ball was becoming.

The fact that our adminstration in its "wisdom" have now slowed our system down so much just seems foolish.

Our top players can make it in the NRL and more of them should do just that. Unfortunately we don't have many.

We have had a problem with basic skills for as long as I can remember and until there is a holistic approach to training kids it will remain the same. Too much that happens with youth development is left to well meaning amateurs who have their own agendas. What we need is a focused, driven plan to bring quality coaching to all our youngsters.

The fact still remains that the most promising sportsment are attracted to football where the financial rewards make aussie RL look like tiddley winks. RL has to make do with the few good kids from RL families and those others that are left.

And thats before we disscus the impact that de-industrialisation had on the base fitness levels of the "North" and the knock on effect that had on sports icon_wink.gif

Quote: Code13 "Picking a backline is difficult indeed, but why pick Gardner who has shown he hasnt got it at international level?

There are young players coming through though I think, just not ready yet unfortunately.'"


You answered your question before I got chance icon_smile.gif

I don't rate Gardner highly, but the same goes for his competition for the wing spot. He was at fault numerous times in the world cup, flying in for no reason.

Maybe a flip of a coin would be better, maybe throw a kid in. who knows...
