Quade Cooper and Summer Digressions

[Lee Grant]

Have changed the name of the thread. I should never have compared Coopers tackling ability with that of Naas Botha.

It will be nice to have a bit of digression on one thread for a few days so long as we get back to best forum practices in a while when the serious business starts.

What the fuck is going on here?! I stumble into the Quade Cooper thread to find a discussion on thigh size and turd frequency...well maybe there is a tenuous QC (Quade Cooper) link. Maybe.

Langthorne STOP! You're killing me. I nearly died laughing.

If it comes to length of kick with an old wet leather ball Don Clarke was even longer than Gould or Curley IMO. He would be unbelievable with the modern ball.

I have been told that Pierre Villepreux from Frogland had a prodigious boot on him as well. Slightly after the Don Clarke vintage, mid - late 60's I believe.

I can remember when I was a kid, Jim Lenehan was a superstar of the Riverina RU comp, and people would turn up just to watch his kicking and ferocious tackling. Beres Elwood of Cootamundra used to have big hitting competitions with him. Exciting times for a young fella.
