Everyone laughed when the 49ers signed Rugby player Jarryd Haynes but have you seen him play? He's going to be a star player, don't you think?

He's going to be awesome. I think too many people discounted him. He's in better physical shape than most NFL players.

I have to admit, I'm a little new to rugby. My nephew started playing in high school and I was amazed on how intense and physical a sport it really is. I remember being nervous for him, because they don't wear the amount of equipment they would for an American football game. Anyone who plays that sport definitely has my respect!

The Australian news services are making a big thing of it. He was certainly one of oersur very best players although he was under contract to a club that has recently been under-performing.  It's interesting that they offered him a million dollar contract to stay with the club but he wanted to try his luck with the NFL.

I hope he makes it. I think he probably will.

He will ! I've watched him play some in the pre season and he's great ! Best stiff arm I've seen in years and those guys were big linebackers and he knocked them right their butts !

Good to hear, Rooster. He's not only a great player, he's a genuinely nice guy.
