Message: [QUOTE="Organix, post: 3504617, member: 8187"] I think a lot of people are at a bit of a tipping point. The problem is that the market is asking for this kind of entertainment, and the players are also enabling it because it is being incentivised. I also love the Broncos, so I can't let it go either, and I hope it gets better. It sucks, because the Broncos are doing really well, so it's weird to still complain about the code, but I said when the Broncos were losing that it was turning to shit, and I stand by that. So, now I just hope it rights itself, because it might get pushback from the core fanbase, who really are responsible for the success of the game. The fickle fans will bring money, but it isn't money that stays. It is chasing the dopamine hit that any entertainment product can give them. The final factor will be whether players actually decide to still play, when they are actually knowingly putting themselves at risk of so much danger healthwise. I think so, but the legal aspect of it all will ultimately come down to money. That means the league will need to chase money. That is the spiral we may currently be in. The super league may soon follow. However, obviously there is a market for full-contact sport. A professional touch footy product like the NRL might actually be fun to watch, to be fair. Check out GAA Hurling or Gaelic Football if you want a fast contact sport with lads playing for pride, not money. [/QUOTE]
