but thats rugby, not soccer, like originally debated... and Ya the point about the padding i can see when compared to rugby

... however Im willing to bet not many 235lbs no body fat rugby players are running the 40 in 4.3 secs

and they say actually when the football players wore less padding in the old days, there were less injuries, cuz the players wouldnt lauch themselves at fullspeed like they do w the padding


and many americans think the same about soccer, how they could easily play it lol
