Message: [QUOTE="theshed, post: 3264810, member: 2290"] Yeah I agree about the personal choice. I think more can be done to protect and support players while allowing them to chose to take the risks. Off the top of my head without much thought. - educating young players of the risks so they can make informed decisions around playing - increasing the minimum age of NRL debuts to 21 (to avoid being thrown $400k at 17 and exploiting their vulnerability around assessing risk). - strict protocols around concussions continuing. Forced time out of game after concussions. eg 2 concussions in a year and have to sit out for 6 months (I pulled those numbers out of my ass). - clubs having to account for life after football in their contracts (% of each contract can’t be accessed by player until retirement) - NRL taking more responsibility for post-retirement medical / psychological expenses.
