Message: [QUOTE="Culhwch, post: 3081526, member: 1983"] I can't see Monash, Melbourne, Adelaide, or WA being too keen myself. This system works for something like the NFL because the collegiate system is basically the only way into the NFL. The number of players who come from outside the draft is marginal to say the least. Also just the shear quantity of college teams. If a player could just go straight to the NRL and potentially get a big paycheck close to immediately, or go to uni for the years without pay and maybe crack a team at age 21 or 22 (three years behind their peers in terms of experience) - not much of a choice, really. So you only get the players who can't make it initially, which doesn't make it a very enticing draft. [/QUOTE]
