"I think you just put him anywhere where he can carry the ball": Clayton picks Michael Smith as potential better rugby player over Van Gerwen

Very few sportspeople are able to transfer their skills from one sport to another. One such example however is Gerwyn Price from Rugby to Darts. Now, his World Cup of Darts partner, Jonny Clayton has dicussed, which one out of Michael Smith and Michael van Gerwen would be able to make the switch in the opposite direction.

"That's a difficult one," Clayton debates. "I think you could pick Michael van Gerwen probably as either a tight-head prop or a big number 8 to carry."

"I know that Michael Smith has played a bit of Rugby League so I think he'd be the obvious one. You'd just put him anywhere where he can carry the ball," the Ferret continues. "Put him centre or stand-off so yeah, I think my pick would be Michael Smith."
