Union players that would make it in league

[Matt M]

We know that a lot of players could change codes and be quite successful at the other but who do you think in union would really go well in league after a while (to get used to the game). This obviously doesn't mean converts like Sailor and Robinson.

I think
-Doug Howlett
-Caucau
-Giteau
-Cohen
-O'Driscoll

Giteau was a league player until grade 11 or 12 anyway and his father was a famous league player too.

Some of the NZ All Black backs would easily convert.

 

[southern warrior]

Alot os super 12 backs would Make the NRl also some super 12 loose forwards.

 

[..::ERIC::..]

Most backs would convert succesfully and love the chance of having more space to do stuff. Big fellows like Jerry Collins and Brad Mika would be pretty good props/locks.

 

[ThrashViking]

Keven Melamu (He plays like a league second rower anyway)
Tana Umaga (Played for the Junior Kiwis)
Ma'a Nonu
Paul Miller
Roy Kinikinilau

I reckon Jerry Collins in League would be like Morley minus the cheap shots.
