A piece from here http://www.bigpondsport.com/you-cant-buy-heart/tabid/91/newsid/86559/default.aspx
The Titans have bought in all sorts of players from all sorts of places ? but just because you pay for men's bodies doesn't mean you get their hearts as well. This year, just one Titans player has given everything in every game ? Luke Bailey, the old man of the team, who has nothing left to prove. In the final third of the match against the Roosters, when the Titans were still a chance of winning, he twice charged down kicks, he tackled, he cleaned up around the ruck. When a big bomb was put in to Anthony Minichiello, only one Titan player chased: Bailey. Where were the younger men? Where were the big-name recruits?
This is so very true and things need to change fast.
