The Anti American Football thread

Yes he is,

One league one union

The silence from the Sunday night ad watchers is deafening.

Who is the union guy?

A guy that played in college

A fella called Christian Scotland Williamson. He was playing 2nd row for worcester warriors until about 6 months ago. Now picked up by the steelers

The leaguie was a lazy shite and I’d doubt he’ll make the NFL with that attitude.

We will have to wait for the coverage to start on tv before the lads can give us their assesment when its spoonfed to them.

This gives a bit of insight to foreign players. The German lad is still in the league bouncing around practice squads but yet to play a meaningful snap.

Seems he is big and can run fast. All they have to do now is teach him how to catch a ball and that’s it, job done. Literally.

If they pass cuts and make the full squads it’ll get me interested. Until then they are both just another guy.

Camp bodies

The sweep sweepery has begun :grin:

Stopped reading after the opening, grossly inaccurate, sentence.

Sweep sweep

Hi Dan

Its because of a special case exemption the nfl has brought in to try and boost the game internationally, its fallen way behind the other three major sports in tbis regard. Mailata is a prosect, the rest are gimmes, as outlined here.

Bigger question would be why has no rugby player ever made it in a far more lucrative sport

Close to 100 players make each team for training camp, that is cut to 53 for the start if the regular season.

A few international players have made it to the NFL and made careers out of it but the majority are cut by the end of training camp. Of the few that made it they were all scouted and played college football like Sebastian Vollmer and Ziggy Ansah

Why hasn’t any failed NFL player made a career in the lucrative game of soccer, mate,?

Rugby is a way of life. You cant distil it down to cash
