League players: fat and slow

I actually thought Turner was a lot quicker.

Also, don't just measure them by their straight line speed Vadz. Remember that NFL guy youtube clips you sent me? He was able to change direction without loosing speed. Similarly rugby/league players training consists of elements to do that. Not to mention the fact that they need to bust tackles etc. Also, remember that rugby doesn't actually have any straight line speed training. It's all explosive power and reaction time. In fact I've lost all my speed (well, not all, but the top end) since I started playing rugby. Mostly because you don't maintain the stride/foot strike training when playing rugby.

I'm guessing the League players that are still playing in the finals weren't involved?

Think it was just Jarrod Hayne, who looked decided disinterested even as he ran. Hardly suprising since hes probably been Mad Mondaying for 2 weeks

Well and they just took the famous guys, not the fastest ones.

Kevin Gordon is 128470734650872503 times faster than Hayne and Inglis. Hayne is sharp over that first 30 though. Wouldn't mind seeing Lachlan Coote and Josh Dugan in the mix too. Maybe even Jennings?

Even a (returning from injury) Jennings would be up there.



Ben Youngs from the English Rugby team scored a blinder against the Wallabies...... FAAAASSSSSTTTT!

Those are really good times for people that aren't runners though. Most people like to talk up how fas they are/were at a high school but around 11 seconds is very quick and well beyond most people.

English 7s teams always seem to put out a couple of absolute total flyers. Often little white guys.

Kevvy Locke would be right up there too.
