Seeing as they brag so much about their multi tasking abilities, I'm sure they could make a good go of it.
Mind you, I can see some bad injuries coming from accidental impacts with irons though.

No innuendos intended Dave. I can't help it if your mind is always in the gutter. I was alluding to their rugby league prowess not their sexual abilities.

Whatever they want! I had the old sexist attitude to women playing football (round ball) until I was playing for Torquay United 5th team* at Shrewsbury Town. On the next pitch to us Shrews ladies were playing Wolves and in all fairness they were miles better than us.
