Serious question here who out of current Fax team would get on any NRL team, not many in SL never mind our league.

Good players yes,better players as of now ,I doubt.

Penky, Gleeson and Black may all have a good chance with fulltime training. Theres loads of players in SL who would be able to play in the NRL, virtually the whole saints and leeds teams would. I appreciate that Saints and Leeds are the 2 best teams i SL but if you look around SL theres people like Ryan Atkins at Wakey who i think could easily play in the NRL.

Do you ever watch NRL if you do you are either very naive re RL or just showing blind loyalty.

NRL is faster and tackling technique is miles better than over here, very few Brits have made it over there during the last 50 years and you think Penky,Gleeson and Black who can't get SL contracts would make it.

Would you have said this about Adam Hemmoroids prior to him being picked for NRL? Would you have said he was NRL quality or do you just wait until they're actually picked before expressing your wisdom. Talk about being wise after the event ! Another "ten 'o penny" forum expert.

This might sound stupid, but having seen a few games in the semis and final in Aus a couple of years ago, I commented on how much slower it looked compared to watching on Sky. Then somebody pointed out that it is speeded up for Sky! It may only by a split second, but it makes a difference to the viewing.

I've been watching RL for nearly 50 years all over the World and don't take kindly to being called a "ten a penny " expert. Some of your comments are laughable but name calling is just childish.

If he had not been picked how could I have commented,I'm not a clairvoyent,I still stand by all my other comments.

Most players in SL would get into NRL squads, maybe not play all the time, but would not look out of place.

The simple fact that Jordan Tansey is starting at Full-Back for the Roosters is proof. He couldn't hold down a place in the Leeds side but is starting out there. Also the NRL is full of South Sea Islanders that are big and fast but are lacking any technical quality.
