Message: [QUOTE="Unbreakable, post: 3125623, member: 8290"] This thought came to me during the game. I think this is genuinely one of the reasons our young players struggle so much when they first come in. There's obviously exceptions to the rule like Haas and Fifita who are actually as good as the media hype them up to be.. And then on the other side of the coin you've got guys being labelled the next Webcke, the brightest prospect since Lockyer, a Cooper Cronk mould.. These kids are 18 years old and have barely plied their trade in reserve grade. It's pretty fucking sad really, imagine having that expectation thrown on you by the media in your first season. It's no wonder mental health is such a prominent issue in Rugby League, the media causes most of it. [/QUOTE]
