I fuckin doubt it, I'd like to see any of those palyers trying to play Premier League football, they'd be shit same with footballers playing rugby! it's called practice, and they get paid to do it, so of course they're gonna be good, otherwise they wouldn't have a job!
But yeah, all sport is sold-out and shitty, every team is just a business, and that is just shit... In football especially, more than half the time there'll only be a few of the players actually seeming to try, and the other players are just half-arsed-ly playing and mess up a shitload considering it's their ONLY job and they get paid £££££££££ just to fuckin kick a ball every day... I'd be amazing if I was getting paid a grand a week to play football!!!!
Do not be daft.
Do you have any idea how much fitter a rugby player has to be than a football player? Football is a game that any chump can play. Rugby players, on the other hand, have to be fitter and more muscular so that they don't get injured all the time. At the end of the day, it's easier to kick a round ball around whilst never having to sprint at full pace or have to tackle a 21 stone prop forward than it is to play rugby. Have you ever been dump tackled? Rugby players get it all the time but they have to be hard enough to get up and play on. I'd like to see Ronaldo getting up with a slide tackle, let alone a dump or spear tackle...
And rugby players don't get anything near like what football players do. Your average rugby player will probably earn less than a grand a week to play a sport that requires far greater training and discipline to play at a professional level than does football.
All the rugby players in my town are fat, "working class" thugs, so shut the Hell up because you don't know anything about anything and I'm going to come to Scotland and murder you.
And how many of them are professional?
My bet is none.
P.S. Viners don't make for good murder weapons.
