Quote Sheldon="Sheldon"You've spent to long on LU, they've turned you into a bogan. The posters on LU don't represent the majority of fans I sit at games with, nor are they the fans, sponsors and investors the NRL are targeting because they don't have much of that important ingredient. Money.
As I've said the NRL have banned the shoulder charge and gave harsher pentaltys to punching.
So I suggest it's you and your ilk who need to find another game to follow.'"
Tis funny then that the NRL at the end of last year, whilst the shoulder charge and biff were around, signed a Billion $ media deal and increased its sponsorship portfolio significantly. Funny how everyone was falling overthemselves to be alligned to this game that was so rough and aggressive? Just because the NRL have made the decisions doesn;t make them good ones. The majority of fans, players and coaches don't support it, glad it pleased someone!

| All you've done is confirmed that 81% of people that took that poll are as stupid as you.
Was the question asked "Is it worse off?" or did the poll/reporter have an agenda?
Anyway what sport have you chosen to watch now the NRL doesn't fit your first for head trauma?

You are very blinkered and narrow minded if you think the majority are wrong and you are right.
Are you a member of the Health and Safety brigade?
Next you'll be advocating helmets and big shoulder pads for the players.

Who are the majority? Doctors? Scientists? Neurosurgeons? Psychologists?
I think they're right.

I'm good, the NRL are clamping down on the "biff" and have banned the shoulder charge.
Which game are you turning too? You'll be ok, you don't have a local NRL side anyway.

| The game needs foundations and those foundations are the Juniors and the Parents that decide to put their kids into a Sport at Junior level they are comfortable with.
In Australia, the AFL, Soccer and even Union Clubs all compete at junior levels with programs like Auskick against League.
Times have changed where people will not have their kids in a sport that allows thuggery or condones dangerous play.
When I played the game there was as much fighting as play (it was a low grade)
That will not sell in this day and age.
Without Parents wanting their kids in League, the game will wither on the Vine in a few years time.

| The players have all been penalised for doing it. I think the point is that it's not that bad is it, a bit of this kind of thing infrequently? People are becoming hysterical in society over everything these days

Maybe not in Yorkshire and East Hull, but it will in many areas.
It already has in Australia.
