Message: [QUOTE="Scumbag, post: 2224969, member: 7738"] Therefore, you're implying that this so called "downward spiral" is a by-product of player reaction to one specific incident involving The President? If this is so, then that's an extremely immature reaction from the players and certainly not behaviour befitting Rugby League players in the top flight competition. As many of you have eluded to on this forum, the Brisbane Broncos are a business. We have conditioned each other to staunchy belive this on BHQ and the players would obviously know this fact too. They are the employees, it is still their job to keep the business running for the rest of the season. I find it very unprofessional that as employees, they would behave like this when they have a responsibility to keep the business running smoothly and thus maintaining their jobs. That's if Coxy's theory is to be believed about this perceived decline. This is very much akin in a way to playing a game of football. When a game of football is played, the players must accept the referee's decisions and simply get on with playing the game at hand. There is no room for mid-game backlash and for the affected team in question to simply shut up shop. Bruno and the administration take the place of the referee in this case. I respect your opinions Coxy, but if your theory were correct and that is the reaction of the players, then that is rather unacceptable by today's business standards. It would have been more acceptable back in the days when the game wasn't so economically based and thus, player protests about the state of the game and over in house issues would have been more tolerable. We're talking about extreme pressure to excel for the appeasement of sponsors and other such external factors in today's day and age unfortunately here though. [/QUOTE]
