Interesting thought. What about a rugby player - use to catching a funny shaped ball and a bigger physical presence. I think the womens goalkeeping position will develop and change hugely in the next 5-10 years and you'll see a lot bigger, more mobile, more tactically aware keepers coming along. I don't have the stats but what about the keepers from the top nations like the US and England and the top European sides? How big are they and are they perhaps already bigger physically than say an Asian, African, South American counterpart
Hope solo, the former US keeper was good.
She was pretty useful with her fists as well and not just while playing
