My son used to be a professional and he was a prop and he used to stay on for at least 60 minutes this 20 minutes is a load of rubbish
I used to play 7 for a side who had a “Paleassina” set as an attacking option..Was basically taking the ball in for the full set against the same forward who looked knackered. Effective

Does it really matter what his name is I am just comparing props from yesteryear to now,they train for four hours and can only play 20 mins rubbish
Yeah but not a fair comparison is it
Cowie, skerrett etc wouldn’t last 10mins (fitness) on the pitch today at the pace and athleticism it’s played at the games a different beast altogether
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure

I use to be a well known professional prob and could do 60 minutes but I won't tell you my name who I played for to confirm if that statement is even true
Just an example of why it does matter, you can't use evidence to prove a point if that evidence can't be confirmed.
You could be ISA doing 80 minutes at prop but it wouldn't make you better than James Graham doing 40
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.
