got a fat and unskilled kid! Well League is the game for you

[leagueiscrap]

From athletes, to actors, to musicians, to businessmen to stock brokers, getting to, and then making your mark in, America, is the definition of success.
Sure, it’s nice when your own country appreciates what you do, but putting your name up in lights in the land of stars and stripes can make you known around the world in an instant.
Now, we’re not saying Aussie Meaalofa Te’o is about to challenge Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump in the presidential race anytime soon, but for a nine-year-old boy from Dandenong, Victoria, to be mentioned by publications like The Washington Times and Bleacher Report is pretty damn cool.
Te’o plays rugby league. What makes him so unique — and what’s caught the eye of America — is that he plays rugby league a lot better than most nine-year-olds.
He’s got one distinct advantage — he’s an absolute monster. Video emerged of the youngster carving up at a junior rugby league gala day in Canberra, and the incredible footage of him running over and through opposition defenders made the Yanks sit up and take notice.
The official USA Rugby Sevens Twitter account tweeted out the footage of Te’o running amok with the caption “Pure. Carnage.” We couldn’t have said it any better.
They also put it on their Facebook page where it racked up 25 million views and was shared more than 340,000 times. Those are staggering numbers by anyone’s standards.

Gees, you gotta wonder why any parent would put their kid out there against a kid that size. Hardly seems fair.

This has been an issue of discussion of late and for some while with talk of weight divisions needed

Former champion triathlete Nici Andronicus has sworn off the code altogether; but not before letting rip with the most vitriolic social media post we’ve seen from a high profile league fan.
Andronicus is filthy about developments in Manly’s junior league; most notably the recruitment of larger kids from western Sydney to one local club, Beacon Hill Bears.
Venting on Facebook over the weekend, Andronicus claimed she could no longer permit her 13-year-old son to play the sport after witnessing so many physical mis-matches throughout the season.

pretty much

Nothing new. No wonder parents are hesitant in their child playing this thuggish/collision/brainless game and that figures of junior RL players have dropped over the years.

[leagueiscrap]

So at what weight or age class do they learn to theow and catch the 5 meter pass?

They will also learn how to associate with bikie gank members and support one punch sucker punch killers and have friends in prison like their rugby heroes do!

The rl players are evrn now days giving lessions out on how to drink your own urine, have a dog lick your nuts & even setting worse examples still in attempting to root dogs

Someone should teach this kid some sportsmanship - did it more often than not ran after a kid to belt him even though he could have kept running - if this is what it's like at junior level kids will keep turning to other sports. But I think his ability was not unskilled clearly he was streets ahead, should be playing a different grade!
