Jarryd Hayne

[kruddler]

I tend to agree with you to a certain extent Kruds
Just a word of warning though... Jarryd Hayne is no Aisake o'Hailpin
This is an elite footballer and athlete.

Not doubting Haynes physical attributes, that puts him on a par with the rest of them. Mentally, he's probably stronger than a lot of them. Intellectually, football wise, he is a long way behind them. He has some big flaws in the way he plays the game at present and it could come back to bite him quickly with a bit of bad luck.

American Footballers place a much higher emphasis on holding onto the ball than they do in rugby. It is not uncommon to get someone to go through a whole season without fumbling the ball once. That would be unheard of in rugby.
