Re: League players are no good in Union

Also, what is the reasoning behind putting a gun basketballer at hooker and not lock ... it makes no sense.

Re: League players are no good in Union

Yeah I played union with a guy who was from a league background in HK. No league in HK so this was his only option. He was about 20kg less than me but god he hit hard. Absolute farm boy strong if you know what I mean. Problem was that if the tackle wasn’t directly in front then he was a bit at sea ...

Re: League players are no good in Union

Re: League players are no good in Union

Why would players get bored in Union? They get to play a significantly more varied role. Manu won’t be restricted to a 10m channel on the same side of the field. He won’t be coached to react to “pictures” and will have to think for himself. The real question is will he be able to do it after almost...

Re: League players are no good in Union

Half ack ftom leahue to union would be unsuitable because space is given to the leahue halfback to pass. They usually take a step. You need to pass off the ground from union. It's down to the individual but habits is hard to change. The closest to a straight swap would be RL hooker to RU scrum-half...

Re: Wallabies 2024 (2023 never happened)

I once played for a team that had a 10 who couldn't run and a fullback who couldn't kick. They were incredible at switching positions needed. The fullback ended up playing 6 nations for a few years. Maybe the Wallabies could do the same but it would take 2 very intelligent players.
