RL ,afl,soccer,cricket,union, Players took the 3 weeks challenge to find out who will be the fittest sportman in OZ .And yes the fittest man is no other then "Billy the kid Slater" he absolutely blasted every other sportsman off the paddock, union and afl players turning there heads in disbelief as Billy took the lead in the everyday contest.

So if the poms were to have one similar who would it be turning up for RL?

I remeber the saints camp saying that, relative to size, Anthony Sullivan was streets ahead of anyone physically.

As fans I think it's difficult to tell. I mean you watch Slater and it's obvious he's one of the best, but less obvious he's the fittest.

We had a program like that years ago and then it returned for a couple of series a few years ago. Superstars. Only trouble is we don't get current top sportsmen on it we had Offiah and Austin Healey, neither being anywhere near their prime. In the original series of Superstars Des Drummond competed but I was only young at the time so I've no idea how he went.

I suppose it could depend on what the events were. We had Sprinting, dips, archery, canoeing, climbing, swimming. What events did the Aussies do?

Moaning, whinging and sulking




Damien Blanch - easy.

Exactly the same.


By the way the other night I ran into a ex player of the 70s and he told me that there was one gentleman playing for GB in the 1970 WC agains't the aussies that he thought was the toughest RL player ever ,even in today terms .He was a dutchmen apparently does anyone know of his name ,as he told me but I forgot his name?

Berrigan beacause he carries 16 other players

drinking, fighting and raping.

YOU GUYS ARE PATHETIC

.....and judging.

In the old Superstars Dessy did well, and may have got the record for 100m, (for the programme not world!). However Keith Fielding the Salford winger won it in the 70s, and was one of the stars of the show. It often seemed to be between him and Judos Brian Jacks. IIRC, in a NZ version, forward Kurt Sorenson beat All Black wing legend Stu Wilson over 100m. Hard to tell who would do well today, but the advantage is to the smaller player, wings or half backs Blanch could be a good call. Didnt Long only lose out to Ricky Hatton in Soccer ams press up comp.

Wayne Godwin is a bit of a fitness machine apparently (when not injured of course).

We know, but with plenty of practise we can catch up to you in these disciplines.

To be fair, we are a long, long way off. Their country was built on those principles.

I'd have though Roby would be Saints' best bet if we had to enter a player into such a comp

Ryan Hudson was the fittest player id ever seen a few years ago.
Before he got banned.

Didnt Powerade do a study into which sport uses the most energy and from memory League used the most followed by football, followed by union [size=75in a tie for 3rd with snooker and darts[/size

Yeah i wonder why

Powergen wasnt it??
