Let’s hope that a young potential player’s Height, Weight, Speed & Max Bench Press come further down @LeicesterTigers priority list when it comes to identifying young talent else you could miss out on a player like England rugby’s @JonnyWilkinson who wouldn’t get a look in 🤔👌 https://t.co/NXwCfXcZsp
