A player like Adrian Peterson would dominate. There isn't a single player in Rugby currently with that ombination of speed and power.

. Ap is a great athlete. However he would have to tackle and pick up the ball skills required. Its not just ok ap heres the ball go run at these guys.

Christ why aren't there all these failed nfl players dominating the rugby scene? If it was so god damn easy and they are all so superior in athleticism then they'd be stupid not to if they cant get an nfl or cfl gig...
