I'm not opposed to that, but it's not very easy to implement.
How high would the premiums be for a few hundred NRL players to get injury cover, in an industry where players are engaged, several times in less than 2 hours, activities in the workplace that could seriously injure themselves?
The NRL isn't directly responsible. They are the governing body of one rugby league organisation, out of many in the country. It's the job of the body that governs the entire game in this country.
Not the NRL.
Every player, be it little Johnny in Under 13's playing for Tumbarumba or Cooper Cronk.
If this injury hadv'e happened in a test match, you wouldn't/couldn't blame the NRL.
It's a responsibility for the RLIF to implement and make law, so that every competition's governing body has a more adequate insurance system in place.
You make some fair points.
ARLC runs the NRL right? Does the RLIF run the ARLC ? Seems not.
