Oh please, our players don't seem to have a problem with the draft. Unlike your greedy money hungry lot.

Yeah, let them destroy the fabric of their team. :roll:

No wonder NRL struggles for crowds and members. The clubs have no soul, no history, no tradition. The fans follow suite.
The fabric of the team is already destroyed if they want to leave! So let them! NRL struggles for crowds because of TV and no other reason. Members? Of what? The Leagues Clubs are going great guns last I looked! Soul, history and tradition right there! The backbone of the community and don't you freaking forget it!

Okay, announced they're changing next season mid season is bad. I'll admit that at least. But that doesn't change what I said otherwise! Get rid of the draft!

Why? They are two of the best sporting comps in the world and use a draft. Why isnt that a reasonal model to copy?

Striker you should just up and admit that drafts work to equalise competitions. Stop making excuses.

Drafts are a violation of business law. People should be able to go where they want to go!
