We should draft Greg Inglis

Post: # 587274Post St.Walker »

I dont know if you are across NRL but Melbourne Storms own Greg Inglis is a ready made AFL superstar, same size as buddy and an absolute freak of nature.

The Saints should be inquiring about this guy in 09!!!

The NRL's equivalent to Buddy. Absolute superstar.

Waldron leaving the Saints due to being a naughty boy was the worst thing that has happened to the Saints in recent years.

Waldron leaves....Saints decline.

Waldron joins Storm... Storm thrives.

There is no coincidence in either.

I thought it was all Grant Thomas' fault.

Did he 'exit' Waldron too? :roll:

He's nowhere near as tall as Buddy. But he's a fine RL player, no doubt. Ready made AFL? No, I don't think so. It's a completely different skillset, and the running requirements in RL are far less.

St Walker, how on earth would we fit him under the cap?

It would take a fair bit of coin to get him to change codes.

I would prefer to have Issy Folau younger bigger more like Buddy!

Actually, Inglis is only 1cm shorter than Buddy (195 compared to 196).

Indeed, he would suit the RL game plan well, as long as he can learn to run backwards because that's the direction the ball will be going.

Apparently the lions recruiting guys had their eye on Inglis some years ago, before he 100% committed to Rugby League
