Agreed - but he was smart enough to realize he needed to see out his geriatric years in the softcock game...Originally Posted by Big Dave

Now, that's some kind of brave...
implying/inferring that Brad Thorn is:
A) softcock; and
B) geriatric
I'd also have to question which version of reality that statement came from.

The ball is in play for a much longer time in League than it is in Rugby thats a given....but
Have you ever seen League live?....now thats boring.
On TV it seems a fast flowing game..
In reality...not so.
The highlight package of a league game on the news, is all that really happens...
Just faidin away!

Went to a few Warriors games in the early years (Cock Ridge was playing for MANly)
and I couldn't understand why so many players just stood around..touch is faster game.and at times.....so is Chess.

He gained my respect when he turned down his AB selection because he didn't know whether he could commit to it or not.

Absolutely true. Its quite boring to play too. You spend a lot of time just running back and forth waiting for someone to run into you. Mind you it was good to have a run with the ball occaisionally, but yeah it doesn't flow much. Depends what you're brought up on I spose.

Union is exactly the same. The 10 minutes taken to reset a scrum is mindnumbing when viewed live. TV viewers get close-ups, not to mention superslow replays of the events that may have caused the scrum, or a cut to a live cross from Smithy on the touchline. Meanwhile, back at the game, the grass in the in-goal has just put on a 0.2mm growth spurt.
The term "80 minutes of action" and "rugby union" aren't synonymous.

Yep. You can't reason with them - they're indoctrinated. Entirely satisfied on a diet of utter crap.

You two should hook up. If you haven't already.

There is a hell of a lot of technique in a scrum, but anyway, name a sport that is full-on action for the entire event.

Netball.
We just watched the Kiwi Aussie game, they know how to play full on.
One hell of a ride.
I think you'll find that all sports benefit from editing for TV.
It's where the money is.
Aussie Rules just sold their TV rights for a $AU1.25 Billion.
