Yep, I think that has historically been the case, but as much as it pains me to say it, union has taken great strides in terms of fitness and skill where as super league (relatively speaking) has stood still. Not sure there is such a massive gap nowadays. Guess we'll know soon enough.
The 6 again rule has made it even harder still - no union player could cope with the non-stop levels of aerobic fitness required for a game under the current rules.
Yes, it takes magnificently conditioned athletes like Robert Lui to do that. Eastmond does not look out of shape to me. Might take him a few weeks but I suspect he'll get there.

Really come on there would be loads of Union backs who would be great in League and I don't think it would take long to adapt.
Oh dear. Leaves us short and rather embarrassed. Wonder if we’ll pounce for someone mid season... all the best to him but it’s a real shame as he was a talent.
