Quote: port64 "1) proven try scorer

2) rock solid in defence

3) superfit

sounds like RL material

( unlike Adam Jones )

Your correct.
Alfie has all the attributes to make a solid RL player he might not take it by storm like he could of done 5 years back but there is no reason why he cant be a Cru regular and do a solid job.

He is still a blues 1st team regular at the highest level ie euro cup so i see no problem with him crossing over.!

He does look very fit at the moment and physically looks the best shape i have seen him.

Also alfie is not the type of person to do this if he didnt think he could give it a good shot.!

but

its a bit harsh to pick Adam Jones out of all the front row union forwards.?... a great athelete / rugby player in his own right with great ball handling and running skills. He only has the weight because hes a front row forward and needs to scrummage(one of best in world ..!!) etc you should of picked Phil Vickery or John Hayes.

No doubt all the chip on shoulder boo hoo rfu haters, so 95% of rugby league fans, are already getting the voodoo dolls out and rubbing their hands with glee at the prospect of him failing.

However, given that northern hemisphere rugby backs are lightyears ahead of their league counterparts, I expect him to rip it up

Are you for real? They spend 70 minutes of the match doing nothing but shivering from the cold, and then when they finally get the ball run at a winger who has been taught how to kick a ball but nothing about how to defend and has never made a tackle in his life? Yea, lightyears ahead.

HAHA....Before i start i like both codes of rugby they both have there pros and cons. BUT i like both not like most northerners. But as i am from and live in south wales i prefer union.

You obviuosly havent watched or played much union in making that comment above.!

Wingers work extremely hard not just for the cameras but off the ball. Wingers in union are running all the time
playing people on side(oh u dont have to do that in lge u just run up infront of kicker), chase kicks down. getting back to support your 15 etc.

I could but together a Welsh only Union backline that would rip up anything SL has to offer.

Shane Williams would give any SL winger a run around and is the most exciting player of either code on the planet.!

I don't know why you keep coming out with this, you have clearly never watched the NRL.

It's difficult to tell how good Union backs are really, as the sport stifles any attacking ability they have. One that that's for sure is that there are a lot of talented rugby players in Wales who would be better suited to league.

Perhaps at Union, but let your Union backline run at a good SL defence in a game of League and they'll get torn apart.

In EVERY cross-code challenge, the Union side has been torn to shreds in open play, and when they've won they've rucked, mauled and scrummed their way to victory.

I like Union (well, used to like it more before it turned to sht), but the sheer workrate of League players is something else. Union backs do naff all for most of the game. Running the line is nothing like fielding a kick and having to make ground into the opposition pack, or scooting from the first tackle into a fired-up League defence.

Shane Williams? Decent enough. Would get hurt in SL at the moment. Nippy. Destitute man's Jason Robinson.

people keep talking about the nrl because if is the best rugby competition in the planet.

its the benchmark for skill and speed

after that its SL, then a big gap and union in nz.

then another big gap, france SA and australia

then another gap and enland, wales etc.

just look upwards.
