There is a thread on another Forum about whether players now really are BFS?
I thought this was a valid question for our game in the UK as well.
***************************************
What is the All Time NCAA Biggest Team starting line up

Are there many old school guys who measure up to these guys?
If the above team walked off the bus you would think you are in for a long day
******************
So how do things compare in the UK?
Are players here BFS than they used to be?
Who are the biggest players in the UK game?

League restructure I told you so 10/3/2011(looking good on this one)
Prem division to two leagues will result in the prem division failing and being combined with Nemla 22/3/2012
the proposed restructure to 8 teams in each prem league will only last a couple of years until it has to be restructured again due to teams dropping out. 13/12/2012

Grant's older brother Mike Catalino is the runt of the litter as a 6'0 200 lb middie when he played for Duke .
