Possibly. That line has speed to burn. I think Monobrow will ensure Walker stays in position defensively, and for that reason place those 2 together.

But in terms of speed, how does your 1-5 compare?

I would say 4 of those blokes are quicker then your guys.
The centres are both definately quicker and Youngquest would be the fastest of the lot.

Speed isn't the be all and end all, anyways I would think the dragons backline is faster, alot faster.

Not the fastest but physically one of, if not the strongest.

And Melon.

Cross isn't as fast as he use to be, Roberts is quick, but there are plenty who a quicker, as for Monaghan, hardly quick at all. Alot of second rowers are as quick as the last two, and most are as quick or quicker than Monaghan.

Walker would easily be you fastest there, followed by Mini, but the others are hardly worth bragging about speed wise.

If our team ends up:

1. Stewart
2. Donald.
3. Alberts
4. Hicks
5. Hoppa

Then that is pretty fast, too. :)

Ours is possibly one of the slowest...
there is alot of potnetial in the side. If Carmot holds the ball thats a strong side. Its also good that not many people know how could they can play.

Christ, what is this, name your back five and proclaim how wonderfully quick you think they are?? Please lock this thread before we hear stories about how some Canberra prodigy scored 16 tries in 8 minutes in premier league and will "carve" up the NRL because they're quicker than the Tigers lot!

1 Jimbob
2 Clancey
3 Bloodnut
4 Shorty
5 Ballbags

They'll clean everyone up in a race to the Penrith RSL for happy hour
