Enjoying the trend in the 'Tahs crowds are you?
Define "many"? Many people get on "fine" without finishing school......up to a point. Can you nominate any well-known league players who have achieved anything in the professions, academia, or international or local business? Ron Coote's McDonald's franchises do not count.
Of course a lot of people survive without rugby in Australia. There are a lot of alternatives, including soccer, and AFL. But the only resolutely, adamantly, working-class game is.............your game. All other sports cater to the whole spectrum of the population, as evidenced by the fact that league is confined to the working-class, sadly academically deprived, segment of our population.
