Swearing an Oath to the Game

[happy_tiger]

I heard an idea from a radio fan on MMM Steven Siensempre ??spelling( he a WT's fan ) tonight

The bloke from Mackay said why not get everyone involved in the game at NRL level (both on and off ) to swear an oath to protect the game

He mentioned all judges /refs do it at the Olympics to be fair , show respect to all competitors etc

Why not do the same in the NRL , might make a few think twice before they do what they might do that isn't in the best interests of the game

Add some real harsh penalties , make every club and its officials do it publically , as well as the refs and everyone at the NRL headquarters as well

Might be interesting to see the results …...

Would my anti-nuke protests at GFs be barred?
Would protest banners against certain coaches etc be barred?
all too problematic and patriotic for my liking

BBF, what are you doing gadding around at A GF anyway?
I thought that you were a WTs fan,
We’ve got a religious ruling that no one connected to WTs can go anywhere near a GF. The players have no problem in Complying with that rule , and so should you :laughing:

Well it is like this. After following the Magies for 11 years from '66 to '77 and knowing I had no chance of ever getting to a GF for the right reason I had to invent some way of getting in. Looking back I can't remember paying much to get in. I am guessing being a replay due to a draw that the tickets were severely discounted. The only GF I have ever attended and I didn't even get to see the game.

But I am notorious for not paying - as a child I used to climb a tree and jump over the fence to avoid paying two bob at entrance at the show ground. Then climbing under every sideshow tent to get a full view of the boxing and girlies show - then returning home and giving my mother the two bob back. She was so proud of me. I was just happy seeing the girlie shows aye

It would be embarrassing.

The players would need to read the oath, which would stop the process for a load of them.

Most of the others would have a legal defence in that they had no understanding of the words they were uttering
