Sam's Linebacker offer

[Webcke]

ps. Webcke I still think Izzy would be a good RB, think Brandon Jacobs but you could easily put him in the slot as a reciever as well.

I can see where your comming from, if Izzy bulked up a little more it could be possible. A hybrid RB/WR. A bit like Marshall Faulk.

Can we all just agree that any athletic skill set any kid has, tailored to a specific sport or athletic endeavour could make said youth a star?

Locky could perhaps have been the greatest Gaelic footballer ever....we will never know.

Rugby league skills wouldn't translate into NFL skills, players such as Joey, Freddy, Locky couldn't utilise their skills to play. A halfback is comparable to a QB, but trying to compare their skills set is futile because the mechanics of throwing a NFL ball are so different to what they do on a rugby league field. On the other hand, guys like Folau and Inglis have those skills that could translate to nearly every football code - strong, fast, agile, good vertical, good hand eye. They are prototypical athletes.

And you think NFL athletes could walk into RL, by comparison? They have to learn to pass first, don't you think?

The fact of the matter is the games are SO, so different. Of course NFL players are awesome athletes. As are pretty much all rugby league players. Who really wants to get drawn into the better/worse debates? The role that an NRL player performs is poles apart from an NFL player, and vice versa.

Ones a collision sport the others a mans game.....

fair point, once again, I've already admitted we cannot compete with professionalism in their sports.
All I'm saying was guys like Locky were special in RL, you don't see them often.
NFL is pre meditated tactics right? The coach calls the play and the players do it right? Professional stuff like I said.

he'd have to lose alot of weight, bulk up, do a 4 secs in the 40 yards, and then compete against kids aged 16/17, that will be bigger, stronger and faster with more experience. I love the guy but he wouldnt get a look in. maybe if he's serious he should train with some teams from austalia 1st. there's teams in Syd, i dont know about Qld.

lose weight? have u seen the size of the fatties that are "professional sports ppl" in NFL lol

These fatties would be about 10 times fitter and stronger then you.

Oh no! so would most homeless ppl. doesnt stop me commenting on them

He's got a point you know. What you said was pretty lame and childish. So what if they are fitter and stronger than him? That doesn't impact on his opinion.

Besides, we all know NFL is played by moronic robots who wouldn't know instinct or tactics if it bit them on their giant padded arses. Hence why they need to stop after every play and have a group bumfest to work out what to do next.

 

[The Brizz]

Moronic Robots you say, Coxy? Lawrence Springborg might get a gig after our holy Anna whoops him in the election "Bligh 09!"

The Borg invented American football. He then discovered rugby league and moved to Queensland where he will reign supreme.

Resistance is futile!

Lol.

Most fullbacks in the NRL can do that without having teammates block for them.

 

[Black Philip]

What a useless ref they must have had. Where is the shepherd call? Must of been Hayne, useless twat.


:P

 

[ethos]

Ennis should join the NFL, he's good at running into defenders when other blokes score.

LOL. How good are the guys just pushing over the defenders. Not blocking them, not getting in their way, actually pushing them over. Takes heaps of instincts to run around ppl lying on the ground :roll:

 

[Coxy]

Yeah, but they wear helmets and shoulder pads. They iz uber kool.
