[QUOTE="Caledfwlch, post: 79666"] gareth edwards not being a good player because the players back then were slow?!?! thats the stupidest reasoning ever!! with the professional era comes $ !!! and with that, more money can be pumped into research to find how players can excel. all things being equal, if GE were to play in the modern game, there would be no doubt that he would excel and rank above all others. players must continually strive to improve themselves if they are to earn the $'s, lest they be dropped. colin meads might have made a fine back rower nowadays, simply because the standard back then was low, and it was harder to consume the ntrition that is available today. while the likes of neemia tialata are extremely muscular for a front row, jason leonard or fran cotton could have been raw power hidden under flabs. simply put, players today are bigger, stronger etc is because of $$ and professionalism [/QUOTE]
