It is the most foolproof method in rugby league or in life.
In life.
Because, like, you go back even to the Broncos.
They got pumped by Manly.
Benny Teon, Paddy Carrigan said to Madge, we need to get the boys on the piss because it's just getting a bit tough.
They went out on the piss.
They want a premiership.
Yes, yes.
Social performance enhancers.
I think as well, like you look at, for example, boxing and MMA.
Now, I know boxing and MMA are harder, but like in regards to contact, let's say you took out the knockouts in boxing or whatever, like the physicality in your body is very similar.
They get suspended medically for like a minimum three months usually after a fight.
Man, in rugby league, if you get fucking knocked out clean, like I'm talking Gonskis, it's 11 days.
In the MMA, in UFC, you'd be suspended for six months minimum if you're flatlined.
And so that's how ruthless this sport is, is that you can be flatlined back in 11 days.
And just to your point, there's no other sport in the world like it where you're playing 27 rounds, you're getting needled.
I think like Preston, he's getting needled in both shoulders right now just to fucking play.
Yeah.
Like just, yeah, just insane.
And what's crazy is like I'm sure there's some listeners that go, oh, it's only like, you know, the tough, you know, lads that are getting needled and everyone else kind of.
