Talking Footy

Ahhh, that's not what every commentator, several newspaper articles, numerous coaches and experts in the field said dipshit!

Just one example of the awe expressed at the supreme athleticism and toughness of one of RL's softer blokes below

I repeat Izzy was one of the softer NRL players running round

Supreme athlete tho

ANALYSIS: AS an AFL player, Israel Folau was a total, unmitigated, disastrous failure.

He kicked just two goals in 13 matches, amassed 80 thoroughly unconvincing possessions, and looked totally at sea for all but two 30-minute bursts in his two years as an AFL player.

In one pre-season game against Hawthorn, and against the Western Bulldogs in Round 5 we saw small signs that Folau was slowly getting the hang of this complicated, nuanced game.

But apart from that there was virtually nothing - in truth it was depressing to watch.

Yet for an AFL so desperate to get a small foothold into rugby league-dominated western Sydney, this exercise has already served its purpose.

Xman you fail comprehension yet again. Mainly because you didn't read my entire post due to your laziness. I said of course hardness doesn't depend on weight. But seriously lil jude made the top ten in the hard men. My point is the NRL top ten would absolutely obliterate the AFL hard men. I mean, jude Bolton? Sure he plays hard for AFL but he'd be pounded to smitherines on the NRL pitch, and even finchey would smash him!!!

Comon Xman, show us you have a clue about sports other than marngrook.

but he has more than what you have.
you fail to understand, players like folau & hunt had to trim down & get fit, yet still struggled in the AFL. league is a bunch of fat men jogging up a field. different body types for different sports, apart from hunt & folau being shown up in having no skill they where even to stupid to learn how the play works.

Whatevs adam. Your opinion is quite small in comparison to the countless expert and commentator opinions I can reference all night long. There's that many remarks been made at how superbly athletic both khunt and izzy are

So stick that up ur arse pal What's that? You want me to post more references on their athleticism from AFL elite???

they would have been brainless dipshit NRL commentators talking up the leagues elite, Athletes
well the NRL's elite could not compete playing AFL folau failed, in fitness and skills, & so is hunt.

Nup they were AFL commentators, as in the video. Dermie Brereton was amazed by the athleticism of folou and khunt. The list of AFL experts and commentators goes on and on and on and on. NRL experts knew their men would dominate physically against the smaller weaker AFL lads so they kinda didn't care, twas no shock to them

According to Champion Data player ranking points, first published by News Limited at the end of the Giants season, Folau's first season in the AFL graded him the 415th player out of the 416 to have played 10 or more games.
Only 22-year-old Richmond small utility Addam Maric finished the home and away season with a lower Champion Data ranking points average in 2012 - and he earned roughly seven per cent of Folau's $6 million, four-year-deal.
Maric has also had fewer opportunities than Folau, having been subbed out of the game seven times in 2012 and spending just 46 per cent of time on the field compared with Folau's 80 per cent.

It is easy to make a case that Folau's average of six possessions and 0.1 goals per game makes him the worst player in the AFL this year.
As a marketing and promotional tool, the 23-year-old former rugby league superstar's code conversion was a success, but on the field he struggled to adapt.

Rugby league legend Matthew Johns has taken to the airwaves to 'free' struggling code convert Israel Folau from the shackles of AFL.

Folau sensationally moved from NRL to AFL almost two years ago and was a marquee signing of the new Greater Western Sydney franchise.

However the transition has been anything but smooth for Izzy, and he hasn't been selected to play since the Giants' round 8 match against Brisbane Lions in May.

Johns spoke out on Triple M radio about Folau's treatment in AFL and encouraged the Giant to come home to rugby league.

"I feel so sorry for that bloke," said the NRL on Fox host. "He went over there and now they're bashing him up and laughing.

"(Former Essendon forward) Matthew Lloyd said: 'If he gets on the field again in the firsts side for Greater Western Sydney it's a joke, it's tokenism, he doesn't deserve his spot.'"


"The AFL are the ones who got him there, and they've extracted cheap publicity for him, and now they're trying to throw him on the scrap heap.

"Israel, come home brother!"
