whats with the constant barbs people have about other sports.
eg, on the upteenth repeat of the topless SBW vision, MJ remarks that SBW has the best physique of all footballers, and then makes a comparison with NFL 'lards'
this guy's a f**kwit, but he isnt a lard. he can't tackle or shoulder charge like sonny or make miracle offloads like SBW, but he can prolly run a quicker 40yd and has better agility to evade agile cornerbacks, jumping and catching abilites to take rocket-fired passes from a quarterback, and then then having to make yards after the catch, while mindful of having a sniping safety or linebacker lining him up for a KO.
point being, athletes train for the specifics of their sport........and more specifically, their position in their sport.
An NFL 'lard', or generally an offensive and defensive lineman who trains for repetitive 100% efforts in strength, power and explosiveness for 10 sec plays. like the example above, this hardly is an apples with apples comparison to a rugbly league forward.
at 6'3" and 238lbs (as per bulldogs.com.au) SBW has the physical stature of a weakside Linebacker or receiving Tight End, but I doubt he's got the athletic attributes at this very moment to be any good at either of these possies, simply because he has trained as a rugby league footballer. if he was to train for the specifics of a Linebacker or Tight End, then a comparison can be made.
