Just wondering what others think. I know im only an old bloke but have watched the game grow and change so mych over the years. But is it going to far . The reasons  is it the speed of the Athletes of today or the rule changes like the 6agains and the dubious referring decisions. Watching tonight's match cowboys v sharks there was 80 points scored in 80 minutes. Even the commentators made the point of saying he thought it was ridiculous. Personally i am beginning to think the amount of players going to be needed on the bench if things keep going the way the NEL is headed will need to grow even more than what has transpired for this season. Im not only talking about the Eels but all teams as I honestly think it will catch up to All teams . I know there will be some say your inly an ild fart and to get with the modern game. They may well be right . But the more im watching games i just think it's going overboard. All this is just my humble opinion wondering what othes think
