Sunlight, bleach & WD40

It's a nice sci-fi idea, but there are concerns already that players are too fast and too strong, and too many injuries are resulting. Imagine a game in which they were hitting each other with the power of machines. I reckoned we'd have been restricted to playing tap long before then.

I'm still laughing.

Today's lineup:

1. Steve Austin

Can we fit him under the cap???

Robocop at half-back or hooker

Terminator would make a cracking no 8

Quote ="The_Enforcer"Remember you all laughed and made fun when i suggested players could be implanted in the future? Once again im being proven to be ahead of the curve. Bionic players will be the future in many years to come. Technology does not stop with your own inability to think outside the box. What seems impossible today is the technology of tomorrow. Great minds do not stand still. https://www.cnbc.com/2017/02/13/elon-mu ... X3Q3zmwjYA'" Won’t ever happen as the human race will long be wiped out before we have the technology to do that

Data from Star Trek at stand off

We will have a perfectly programmed bionic player and fans would still claim he should only play full back.

I see Robbie Soles and his know it all mates are out in force today

surely on the wing for GB?

1. Steve Austin
2.
3.
4.
5.
6. Data from Star Trek
7. Roy Batty (Blade Runner)
8. Terminator
9. Robocop
10.
11.
12.
13.

Kano would go well in the pack

No 11. Kryten - Red Dwarf

Almost forgot, they’ll need a coach so...

Marvin- the paranoid android

You mean the CEO of Tesla and Space X? Yeah if only he had the intellect of Gareth, a nobody on a rugby league message board.

Oh stop, you will hurt my feelings....

Universal soldier? Jean Claude must fit in there somewhere with Dolph Lundgren

Metal Mickey Higham at 9?

Buck Rogers robot Twiki could do a Rob Burrows at scrum half "beedly beedly"

C3PO would make a decent winger, I’d have Darth Vader at 13 too

Got to call you out on this. Did you not see how slow C3PO was when they first got to Tattooine? He would be a good on field trainer passing messages on in whatever language the player speaks (even Wiganese!). Great call on Vader. He would swap allegiances though a-la Tony Carroll, but that's another thread.

R2D2 got to be 9.

Robocop line running secondrow with his mate ED 209 at Prop just as long as there are no stairs to negotiate on the trip from the changing room to the pitch.
