I must apologise to the NRL for excluding me, and so many of my fellow aged footie fans, from the majority of games every weekend, as I thought they did it to save money. But my family paid for my subscription to one of the online platforms so I can continue to watch my favourite team.
As I waited for the game to start, I realised that the NRL allowed its betting agency to pour out more than 20 minutes of continuous betting info whether I wanted it or not. It is obvious that the game I urged the young players to love when I was president of my local junior RL has been converted into a gambling event, to the extent the kids know the betting odds of their favourite team, but not the captain.
