It is no secret that rugby league is in dire straits. Players are being lured away for other competitions and other codes and talk of clubs nearing doom is constantly in the headlines. Surely, something can be done. But what?
The men in charge don't seem to be doing anything and
the "help your mate out" attitude which envelopes the rugby league community means ex-players are constantly being promoted to positions of importance with no formal qualifications. I dont have a great business mind, but it doesn't take one to know that is what is needed.
We need money in the game. We need fans going to matches. Crowd attendance is pathetic compared to other codes, and another good year for the Tah's and another AFL team in sydney isn't going to help matters.
Playing club games at homebush is killing the game, the atmosphere is non-existant. Non televised matches should still be advertised on TV with family insentives.
Any other ideas to save our sport...
