Hi Everton,
A bit of old slang it means someone who can hurt and do you damage when he runs the ball or tackles you, ala Chris [/B]Beaty the fiery ranga,Old Cliffy Watson, Bundy Les Davidson, way back we had not huge fella Boxer Allan he was a real tough hard bugger but commanded respect from the oppositian the pommy props Sammy Burgess or James Graham types.
PROPS Who can intimidate you, who put a bit of fear in you, who can do the hard yards when needed. Someone like Gal but 5 to 10s heavier.:good:
