Guys, really want to thank you for all your comments and suggestions. Letting him decide is probably the best way to go.
As I said I never played league at all except for under7s (can't remember any of that), it was mainly soccer for me, the best part of 35 years. I've signed up this year after a 12 year absence in Over 45s and my boy is very keen to see me play.
But at the moment when I get home from work, all he wants to do is go out in the backyard and play cricket first and then footy. Loves the new ball I got for him and he loves running in and scoring a try.
I don't think he's ready this year but next year for sure. He is going to be a big lad, he has my genes (I'm 6ft 4in and 127kg), so I think he would hold his own when he gets older and plays against any Polynesian lads. Time will tell. In the meantime he loves going to the Sharks games and yelling, "Go Sharks!"
Thanks again for your comments and keep the thread going, love reading the stories about the glory days.
