are you joking?

did you see him score that try out running the fullback?

hes actually one of the fastest at newcastle over 40 metres
When he gets the ball i usually turn away, it makes me feel sick watching him run with all the jiggiling and the waves of flab rocking back and forth.

You're off your nut, Danny Wicks is a fat looking bastard but he can move. I'm with Charlie, Shane Tronc is my pick - have you seen him do a hit up? I'd back Kerry Saxby to catch him power walking.

In regards to Danny Wicks I reckon he'd be the quickest prop over 40m, not sure how he'd go over 100 though

From that list Shannon Walker should win IMO

David Taylor from the Broncos can do the 100m in 13 secs, which is pretty good for a massive guy.

13s isnt very good you realise?

But you hear stories about big guys that can run super fast every now and then and I haven't seen any justification of them (on the field anyway), the most recent one that springs to mind is Tom Learoyd-Lars with the Raiders - I think he's a good player, just not as quick as he was advertised (I'm pretty sure they said he could do 11's)

TLL clocked 11.2 for the 100 as a teenager, was even playing in the centres for the clydesdales at 115kg.

Also 13 secs over 100m is nothing to write home about when some players can run it in 10.5, 2.5secs is a big gap in terms of metres something like 20-30m
