Jarryd Haynes rugby guy

Who the fuck is this guy n why is he trying out for the Lions. He looks like a small tight end, have no idea what his use would be.. although his rugby highlights are pretty amazing, but I know nothin about that sport.

Posted bc of all the internationals here, this guy is the big name of rugby or what?

His departure follows the loss of stars Sonny Bill Williams and Sam Burgess from the NRL to rugby union also after the end of the 2014 season,[29] and has been compared by one fan to “Football losing Messi and Ronaldo to golf”.[30]

idk much about Rugby but it seems like he has a combination of decent size and speed, which might be good in Rugby, but the NFL is very specialized. He's not big enough to be a TE or a power running back, and I don't think he has the speed or quickness to be an effective returner or elusive running back.

They're completely different sports though. Even if he had the talent to play in the NFL, it takes years to mentally learn the game at the professional level. I think he will be back playing Rugby within a year or two.
