Alot of people have this head in the sand attitude that league players are undoubtably he greatest athletes in the world, they are the greatest athletes in the world for rugby league because their conditioning is based on rugby league but if anyone watched any other sport they'd realise there are alot of blokes playing other sports who are every bit as good natural athletes as we have in the NRL. For example 49er's tight end vernon davis is measured as 191cm tall and 120kg, he can run 40 yards in 4.38 seconds, bench press a 100kg bar 33 times and had a vertical leap of 106cm, just to put that in perspective, very few AFL players wold be able to vertical leap 106cm let alone league players
