Message: [QUOTE="dukey, post: 2139875, member: 2046"] There is no way to win the battle against the media. If the players go out and have a big night and do something stupid, they are rightfully derided. But if they have a big night and behave themselves, they are still labelled bad role models for drinking. The 'fan' picture in the Courier Mail shows that if they go out and have a beer the media will still blow it out of proportion. I'll bet you a shiny dollar coin that if they did start having barbeques at a mates place the media would call them 'isolated and out of touch with the average punter' because they're not going out in public. Then they would stop the barbeques, too, and the media would complain that they are robots who have nothing in common with regular people. Forget French Rugby or AFL, the biggest threat to RL is two bit tabloid rags like CM and the Telegraph. [/QUOTE]
