Joe Average can see the potential problem as easily as Scotty from Marketing, and I suspect the club and NRL recognised the failure of the pub test.
To me it's more akin to the speeding teenagers, heaps of teenagers defend that by claiming after the fact that nothing bad happened, but then sometimes parents end up burying their kids instead like the accident the other night north of Melbourne.
Nobody in a position of responsibility will leave the fate of the NRL competition to chance.
