"We need more Australians of an Asian background. They're great at soccer, and they would be even better at rugby league."
I read this somewhere.

I agree with this. Asians are great at soccer and i would love to see them play Rugby.

Let's not be too hasty in calling them great at soccer. The good ones are few and far between. If you want to profile by race,( Aussies, Europeans, Africans, Afgani, middle Eastern ), daylight, then Asians.
Most of them only play sport for a year or 2 until they are able to go to tutoring, or violin.

We have a few asians playing grade with us at Wests Harbour, 1 from Thailand and 2 from Japan. Great skills but just lack size against the Polynesians

Greenberg should mandate that all NRL players need to undergo testing through ancestry.

Growing the game with the first Mongolian playing nrl based on 1% of his DNA

Better to use the edit function than agree with yourself and look like a Napa lol

Love it. U cracked me up. If Gordon Bray ever called League he’d be dateing players ancestry back to the ming dynasty during a backline move.

 

[Matto]

HaHa. Yeh, didn't think of that
