I'd say what a player benches or squats is pretty irrelevant to their playing ability. Their weight training just supplements their overall running/skill training.
Footy is mostly about running these days, a player would rather run sub 10 min 3km
Than bench press 140kgs. As long as they have adequate strength to compete in contest and not get pushed around, their running ability is a far bigger advantage.
