In Australia, parents of opposing clubs are trying to ban a 90 kg 11 year old from playing jnr rugby league because of safety reasons.

 

I know most people here don’t care about rugby of any kind but 90 kilos god damn that’s heavy.

 

Normally I would'nt discriminate but I can understand the parents concerns.

 

Oh, for those who may read this a still use the imperial system 90 Kg is just under 200 pounds.

He looked pretty big on the tv, towering over his competitors he looked pretty solid as well.

 

He looked like he may be Polynesian ethier Tongan or Samoan which if that's the case that would explain a lot.

Maybe he could play with an older age group? :hug:

That’s a good idea, but the club that he’s with is arguing that under the rules he has the right to play in that age group.

 

Anyway I found the story online for anyone interested:

It’s got a pic of the kid with other competitors which gives you a indication of the kid’s size but it’s not a good one.

Hay I found out the kid's(Nigel's) height when I picked up today's newspaper. Would you beliveve, it was on the first page, Not much going on in Aust.

 

Anyway he's 173 cm tall, sorry I don't know what that is in imperial exactly I think it's around 5' 7" - 5' 8" which is pretty tall for an 11 year old.

Cripes, mate! That's a big kid! I'm 255 pounds (about 114 Kilos), and I am almost twice this kid's age. I am also probably alot taller. I'd suggest putting him in a higher bracket, let him play with kids his size. I guess it's they "Hey, pick on someone your own size" thing.
