[QUOTE="profitius, post: 979330, member: 41524"] It'll balance out in the end. Props couldn't slim down too much because theyll get destroyed in some games when up against bigger, less fit props. So coaches will need to get the balance right between fitness and size. And you say it's not about slimming down. Well if it went to 5 subs every team would need to lose the kgs, guaranteed. PSDT might be extremely fit but if the game went even faster he would have to adapt. A faster more skilled game would be better for Asian countries too and would mean less players were picked because they're over a certain size. [/QUOTE]
