Message: [QUOTE="OXY-351, post: 2270194, member: 2107"] I don't think the concept as it currently stands will every take off. It will be more of a flash in the pan than Jarryd Hayne. More recessive genes than Steve Michaels. The comparisons to origin are rediculous. You could see the players in the first game of origin were actually playing for something. It didn't seem like that the other night. Sure players tried, but they didn't seem to [i]really[/i] care that much (they were doing things they'd never do in a "real" match), and why would they. As Coxy pointed out, only one team had anything to play for. If they players don't care, the fans won't care, and the game will become nothing more than a farce. In my opinion, no match comprising of 40 players picked by fans is ever going to be taken seriously. It was entertainment, not a rugby league match. [/QUOTE]
