So as I say, less than 1%.

This is one aspect of it.

And my attitude towards this is, okay, for all of those young kids who get promised this and they get promised that, when they go to Australia, do they get put in apprenticeships?

Do they get an education?

Do they get sent to university?

Do they do other courses?

Are they left by the wayside?

When you talk about rugby and the professional side of it, there is NPC sides.

There is five super rugby sides.

There is a sevens program that goes to the Olympics.

There is an All Blacks international side.

There is a league in Japan.

There's leagues in Europe.

All the NRL have got is the NRL, and that's all they've got.

It's pretty big, though.

Okay, but again, less than 1% of these kids are going to make it.

So if you're a parent of a young lad that's playing or a young girl that's playing rugby or rugby league at the moment, when you look at what's actually out there and available, it would actually make more common sense to me to actually go, well, rugby actually does offer you more opportunities in the long run.

Yeah, and they conned them into it, mate.

I mean, they conned them into it with riches and a trip here and a couple of hundred dollars there and some rent paid here.
