History for Enough said

I think to jump to conclusions about how athletic they are is absurd after one game against the likely worrld champions. I chatted to the strength and conditioning coach at one of the schools that supply players to this team and to the NZ schools rugby team , and the footballers are right up there with the rugby players in terms of testing results . The issue he says is the schools control the rugby players and their programmes , but the footballers are pulled in every direction with club , rep and school demanding their bit . He says the result is over trained athletes and this diminishes their output .

Those French players looked more athletic than the Auckland City players the 17s played before they left , not surprising some have million euro plu fees already paid for them. Let's judge after the next two games
