Who will be the fastest player in the game?

[chriscnz]

Well Joven Clarke has run the 100m in 10.49 seconds and competed in school boy athletics at an international level. I think its fair to say, in a footrace in the NRL (supposing he is faster now his body has matured even more, probably hasnt been training for athletics tho) he would be the fastest player.

 

[Robster]

Justin Murphy i remember him outpacing Rhys Wesser to score a fantastic solo try, also running down David Peachy which resulted in a try saver, peachy had 15m headstart.

Did'nt Anthony Minichiello catch Justin Mrphy in last years grand final after Murphy got an intercept.

 

[Changa]

Didnt Amos Roberts catch a flying Minachello in the Anzac day clash down the left sideline as he made a break and only reached his own 40m line?
And yet Amos was not the fastest player in the Saints backline(gone to Penrith now)-Matt Cooper was the fastest so really speed cant be compared on a footy field, only on the track.

murphy did slip over.

We all know who the fastest player will really be... Scotty Sattler. It sure as hell won't be Todd Byrne.

 

[Dragonschik]

Matt Cooper used to be a sprinter and he's very quick. But Luke Bailey has to be the fastest prop. Does anyone remember the saints/penrith game back in round 18 or so, when bailey came from accross the other side of the field and caught up to the winger.

 

[Parra_Boy]

I think Micheal Vella would be the fastest Prop, he used to be a winger anyway and has the physique to be a fastish runner.

 

[devonuto]

Scotty Sattler is the fastest player... WHAT A TACKLE!!!!!

 

[miccle]

If all the stats are only out of 10, I'm assuming there will be a fair few players that will be the fastest... yes?

 

[beerboy]

yeah Scotty Sattler will have jumped up plently of speed points now
Joven Clarke is the fastest in the NRL

Jamie Lyon is deceptivly quick

Morley is quiet quick for a big lad

as a shark i have to Matt Rieck is up there in top 5

hate to say this but Gasnier is a gun or the mark

 

[Petebix]

I dont think RL will ever see a player as fast over long distance as Martin Offiah,now he could run!

Lee Oudenryan beat Offiah in a 100m race in 1992

No he did'nt,
I watched it the other day.

 

[lil ripsta]

Yes, but Amos Roberts came on the angle so he had an advantage.
I bet if you put them on a line and they raced side by side Minichello would blitz him.

i agree with you there regarding bailey, i remember the chase he put up on brent webb and was actually keeping up with him, although webb did score

I remember that...then Offiah left him for dead to score in the game!

Offiah was a freak.
