PrivateDerby Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 This lad has apparently only been playing rugby for 12 weeks, he then got selected for the sevens team and well, just look! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrivateDerby Posted December 16, 2012 Author Share Posted December 16, 2012 His name is Carlin Isles and he can run a 10.13 in the 100m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cisse Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Seems like an easy game to me. After 12 weeks you can do pretty much what you will if you are quick.

sage Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 His name is Carlin Isles and he can run a 10.13 in the 100m. Are you sure? He would have got to the second round at the olympics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would have got to the second round at the olympics Yeah, that was in the article I read although I can't find it now so I can't remember why he wasn't. I'll have another look mate.

RamOfKansas Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Not really related, but awhile back a nephew of a former NFL player and ESPN Analyst who is a somewhat highly rated college football prospect as a high schooler insisted to his coach not to let college coaches see his film. Apparently he insists he wants to be a rugby player. Which doesn't happen all that often, or at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabber Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Funny you mention that, on the Pats - Texans game last week they were singing the praises of Bellichick and mentioned how he even scouted rugby players! Pats have an ex rugby player on Punt return defence I think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 He is incredible - I can believe he runs 100m in 10.13! incredible agility to go with his pace which is a major asset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most were born rugby players but realized they could get their education paid for by playing football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
