    Reds v Waratahs, round 19 2014

    Perhaps a non-contact sport would be better for JJ?

    Reds v Waratahs, round 19 2014

    Yup, like digging in the ruck with your feet as opposed to the hand - same concept.

    Reds v Waratahs, round 19 2014

    If you only watch the part of the screen where Kerevi is, things aren't so bad!

    The success of League players in Rugby Union

    Yup that's the 'Utah' I was referring to! Thretton just got back into the Eagles setup as well. He's a very talented player and hopefully his new job with Saracens goes better than his stint with Biarritz did when he was 17-18. They had another pretty special guy playing 9 a few years ago, Don...

    The success of League players in Rugby Union

    Yeah, they have a huge Pacific Islander contingent as well which feeds them some pretty great players with shocking regularity. Utah (State University) has fallen from grace over the past few years but BYU (Brigham Young University) are one of the best teams in this country, at any level and...

    The success of League players in Rugby Union

    This is only an actual problem is some isolated parts of the country. You would register your club with USAR, bid to enter your local conference at whatever division level would be most appropriate (usually based loosely around traditional college conferences - that is changing, though) and...

    The success of League players in Rugby Union

    It's growing at a pretty rapid pace and has been since mid 2006-2007 I'd say. Things absolutely picked up after the 2011 World Cup - sitting down and watching the matches with my college side was awesome. On the national level there are multiple schools every year now that are converting from...

    The success of League players in Rugby Union

    Nope, born and bred in the USA. Played with some exchange students in the local selects side my freshman year of college (2009-2010) and got turned onto Super Rugby/The Reds. Fell in love with them and by proxy the Wallabies. Have since become about as close to a dyed-in-the-wool supporter as...

    I hope Kerevi is alright for this weekend, had his whole left leg wrapped up during training this week - looked like he might be in a bit of discomfort too.

    The success of League players in Rugby Union

    Off the top of my head - Digby would have been pretty good, JOC (James O'Connor) too (after he bulked up).

    The success of League players in Rugby Union

    Lomu, Izzy and Savea are too tall to play RB on anything other than a Wildcat formation or some other "trick" play. Izzy would be one of the best tight ends in the NFL if he could learn how to block even a little - he'd be a devastating receiver in general.

    I dunno, may have to check if Germany invested in one the way they pounded Brazil :rolleyes:

    Don't most international setups (or at least some - I can't be totally hallucinating on this) have a 'collision' coach of sorts?

    Some more on Adongo and the Colts: http://www.colts.com/news/article-1/Daniel-Adongo-Where-the-Team-Needs-Me-I-Shall-Be-There/d7843f60-64ab-43db-b2f7-a82125f0e727 He's scary big now.

    ACT Brumbies v Western Force - The Elimination

    Couldn't agree more but I'm just provincially biased.

    ACT Brumbies v Western Force - The Elimination

    Then there's your problem - at 5'10" and 80kg Benny Lucas is about as far from being a big bloke as you can get. At MMM's weight you'd expect at least 1,117 Newtons of Force (heheh) purely from him dropping his weight (so 9.8m/s^2 as the acceleration). It's not enough to break Ribs 1-3 but...
