This says a lot dear freddyI agree tho many an AFL expert indicated he was an awesome talent. And the fact that he managed to fair better than some AFL drafted players without a skerrick of comparable training or experience more than proves my point here.
NRL players are generally far more athletically gifted and talented than AFL players.![]()
