    What are you basing that on? I've seen clips of their training and it's mental hard.

    Why? Barring injury, they still have 5+ years left in them.

    Beep test and longer distance running results mostly. They absolutely shred everyone, including some actual runners, over 400m or so, but after about 1km they drop well back in the pack.

    All of the players that I'm about to mention are football (soccer) players. Obviously that wouldn't know how to handle a footy, but use your imagination. :p

    Peter Crouch - would make a decent winger. Isn't so fast but he's one of the tallest in the sport.

    Scott McDonald - hooker maybe? Short and strong, can see a bit of Nathan Friend in him. :p

    Michael Essien - Lol, I reckon he'd make for an alright lock. He's a powerful player and is defensively strong.

    Cesc Fabregas - halfback? Haha, he's a little midfield general. Can see him having the organisational, creative and leadership abilities of a halfback.

    Emmanuel Adebayor - prop? He's the biggest footballer I can think of from the top of my head at the moment. Wouldn't look out of place along side Nathan Cayless and the like. :p

    Well in comparrison to younger guys coming through they aren't that good.

    Shaun is like 32 though I think and his body has a heap of wear and tear. You'd go for a fresh 20 odd year old tbh.

  9. Bender BG Herd

    I'll do some from the NFL:

    Michael Turner (NFL) would be a ****ing gun Second row/prop. Or even (Number 33 in this video)
    http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-highlights/09000d5d80a9739c/WK-1-Michael-Turner-highlights
    He can take a hitup, has speed and powers through.

    Jerious Noorwood would be a pretty sweet winger or fullback, has immense speed and vision, returns kicks, and can catch a ball.

    Ray lewis is a beast, would be sweet as a prop or something. #52:

    Patrick Willis, A BEAST; #52;
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cn_Yw7mEpqg

    And TBH, Michael Vick. He'd have an immense running game, passing game and vision. Just don't know where to put him.
    5/8th?
    Probly can't kick.

    Willis would dominate. Extremely athletic and a great defender.

    Size doesn't really matter in AFL. Could play almost anywhere except the ruck these days.

    And Slater just looks like one of those guys who could take a big mark and kick the ball well.

    Slater would be good at clearing the ball over the sideline when under pressure... But he does that pretty well in Rugby League.

    Aslong as he makes it bounce before it goes out.

    Bobby Lashley would be a hectic center if he wasn't on roids.
