Who is faster, joe rokocoko or bryan habana?

Question

it would be awesome if you could add their 100m times

aswell as your reason of who you believe is quicker

Answer 1

Strange...no mention of the " Best Winger in the World "

Sitiveni Sivivatu....been carrying injury, but coming right.

Answer 2

Habana Hands Down!

Answer 3

Habana is the fastest, definitely, apart from the fact that he has more recognition as the fastest rugby player in world rugby, here are some 100m times:

Tonderai Chavanga 10.27 seconds 100m

Bryan Habana 10.4 seconds 100m

Takudzwa Ngwenya 10.5 seconds 100m

Joe Rokocoko 10.66 100m

Doug Howlett 10.68 100m

Paul Sackey 10.7 100m

Jonah Lomu 10.8 100m

Soseni Anesi 4.53 40m

But in my opinion Habana is a faster rugby player than Tonderai, he's really quicker of the mark and that is what counts when there is only 40 metres left to go.

Answer 4

that fact about habana is a fabrication. the south african rugby union have confirmed that habana has never ran 100 metres substantially under 11 seconds i.e more than 0.05 seconds under it. however it would be true to say that habana has the best accleration in world rugby. while ngwenya runs 100 metres in 10.5 seconds now, he ran it in 10.25 seconds at the age of 16 when he was training to be a sprinter. caucaunibuca runs 100 metres in 10.7 secs while obese - imagine him in shape. A ridicuously quick player left out of that list is south african jongi nokwe. he runs 100 metres in about 10.5 secs. also, what about breyton paulse or that japanese guy onishi who was injured for the world cup.

Answer 5

Brian Habana is quicker and Rupeni Fau Fau is quicker then both of them, though he isnt nearly as good as them. Have u seen the vid of brian haban racing the cheater and he wins (with a 30m headstart or so)

Answer 6

Habana looks a quicker runner but what Rokocoko has is pure power

Answer 7

habana but chavhanga will beat him.

Answer 8

joe rokocoko 100m is just over 10secs

bryan habana 100m is just under 11 secs

habana is alot betta cuz habana has the record of 8 tries in the rwc

Answer 9

Joe Rokocoko is good but being South African I say Bryan Habana is best.  I'm just being biased here though.  But seriously both are good and both are fast.

Answer 10

Bryan Habana!

Answer 11

Rupeni actually has a quick time but one of the fastest recorded over 100m in rugby to knowledge was Joeli Vinderi who ran a 10.17 during his training years for Counties-Manukau Rugby days.  Those were that he and Jonah distroyed all the NZ competion.  This was alrecorded as his quickest time when he played his few games for the All Blacks before becoming ill.  Might I add that he also weight 108kg and Jonah was 120kg.

Answer 12

over 100 meters it would be very close. but it doesnt matter what they run on a track, its wat they run while plying rugby. how often do u see a try being scored by an indivudial from 100 meters out? back to my point it would be very close on the track but during a game having to step and fend of player, it would Rokocoko by a country mile. pitty he is injured at the moment.
