Message: [QUOTE="nopatience101, post: 2304010, member: 1755"] pretty pathetic to be blaming bruno, how was he suppose to know AFL would come in and sign our stars with million-plus offers? and then how is he suppose to compete with those offers? at the end of the day if the player doesnt want to stay there is nothing the club can do about it, players dont sign on because of the ceo and they dont leave because of the ceo. Players like Folau dont make the game, the game makes them. AFL will get their 60 seconds of coverage in league markets and at best because of it people will know who they are or even that they're there but it doesnt mean they will care. It will not make kids want to rush out and register for afl, they were following folau because he played NRL, not following NRL because of Folau. League fans will only resent AFL more, while they can buy NRL players, the public are not stupid and their support and tradition cant be bought. I would think any AFL player who has been working his butt off his whole career to get to the top of his 'sport' and earn half the million plus thrown at league players who have never played a min of it would be pretty pissed.
