Message: [QUOTE="Professor47, post: 2223625, member: 1831"] Coxy - I don't think it will cause major troubles IMO. What you say about teens playing league first... perhaps... but they might grow to love league if they become really big in league. (Assuming they would have to be a rep player at least to get AFL offers anyway) A lot of hypotheticals but I don't think the AFL is a problem yet compared to the jap and french rugby at the moment. However, the fact that young league players want out cannot be ignored. I know not everyone agrees with me in terms of media scrutiny which is fair enough but there are a number of reasons why young league players want out and I believe the NRL should address this. Yes - we KNOW some other young kid will come up and be a freak but it is just hurting our depth when we could potentially keep all these young guns. Retiring players moving to SL for some cash is nothing new but I wish we didn't have to do that either. Coxy - in regards to your question I don't think AFL is a threat but it has happened now. Whose to say there will be no more? I just think the NRL should act!!! [/QUOTE]
