Ok this is a new idea that i thought up.
Name a modern Day youngster who has alot of simularities to an Old School player?
This old School player, must of played First grade football 10+ Years ago.
Ok here is my comparison.
Iosia Soliola= Old School Ruben Wiki
Lets turn back the clock
For all you old time fans. Do you remember that young, Quick, big Afro number 4 in the Green Machine? In 94's Grand final?
Ruben wiki wasnt one of the quickist Centers around, but he could read defense very well, Set players up with great offloads, and Sting you in defense. Nowadays he is a big tough ruggered Prop, slow, and a fantastic leader.
In my opinion, Iosia Soliola is the modern day Ruben Wiki of old.
Not the quickist back around, but man o man can he hit you(Just ask Tame Tupou and Ashely harrison) Soliola has a fantastic defensive mind, and one great offload/Flick pass(majority of Amos Roberts's Trys this season where off a Soliola Flick pass)
Both 1994 Wiki
And 2005 Soliola, one of the best Comparison's you will get.
In the end, Iosia will follow the same path as Ruben. By the end of 2010, Soliola will have fitted into the back row. By 2015, he will be a Big, Knuckleheaded Prop Forward that looks very intimidating.
In my opinion, you couldnt seperate these two. Their careers will be so alike.
So what is your Comparison?
