Every prop should watch JWH play for Roosters as a benchmark to playing prop. He takes it in twice a set, makes well over 100m a game, boat load of tackles and brings the intimatory presence with him without punching folk.
I think he is a player that will be available after this season to SL.
The way the game is being tightened up over there he is a penalty machine. I seem to remember he as dropped because of the issues around penalties last year.
I love to watch him play though but I think the game is moving on beyond these type of guys, which isn't a good thing in my opinion. His work rate is fantastic too.
The way Tetavano struggled to fit in last year is an example of it.
The other thing to consider is in the NRL they measure meters very differently so us in SL. I think we only count from crossing the gain line in SL however in the NRL they count from when the player receives the ball.
