Who was the fastest man in Rugby League ?

Question

Some little known names; Lee Oedenryan, Robbie Beckett, or remember Martin Offiaha ? Any one else ? Ken Irvin maybe ?

Answer 1

hellauva- nice work... love the webby comment just proves you dont have to be pretty to play league...

other categories- biggest chin in the league?tonie caroll, brett tate?

Worst voice in the legue? lockyer in front... lol

Back to the fastest question, wasnt that english player martini or something like that touted as fastest in the league?

Perhaps they can have a race off like the afl does at the GF each year that could create some interest.....

Answer 2

Billy Slater

Answer 3

a winger who played for the roosters named shane wheret ,in the gift race he started 20 mts back and beat them all easily,without doubt the fastest man in league.

Answer 4

got a new one - chris lawrence from the tigers.

my god he can run

Answer 5

either

nathan merrit the south sydney flyer

or shannon walker tweed heads flying fullback

Answer 6

Over 100metres here are a couple not mentioned

Mike Cleary (Rabbitohs) represented Australia at the Commonwealth Games.

Reg Gaznier

Steve Rogers

Steve Ella

Hunt & Slater are both great players I probably would have tried to find a way of getting them both in the QLD side. Maybe play Slater at F/B and Hunt at Centre with Hodges.

As far as Ugly ......O'Mealy has to be there abouts

Answer 7

My two cents...........past players...Larry Corowa,Kerry Boustead,Steve Morris,Brett Mullins,Shane McKellar(who I believe was known as the Lithgow Flash)John Ferguson,Brett Dallas,Steve Renouf,Andrew Ettingshausen,......oh,and Darren Clarke (Australian Sprint Champion,played for Balmain I think!) he was pretty quick but I don't recall him playing First Grade Rugby League though.

From these,I could not say who was fastest but it would have been a h**l of a race.

Martin Offiah and Lee Oudenryan had a race at Parra Stadium years ago which Oudenryan won easily but I would have to say the 'poorer' footballer won that day.

'Chariots' Offiah was a better player than Oudenryan by a mile.Oudenryan was pretty quick but not sure if anyone else was faster.

Of the current stars I'd like to see a race between the fastest from every club............imagine the market!!!!!

Slater,Inglis,Bowen,Bell,Stewart,Merri... to name a few....

the question who would win out of the current NRL stars??

Maybe we could hold the race istead of beach footy next summer........and they could run on sand,then grass and then on a running track.........and maybe (I'll stop now before I get too carried away!!!Ha Ha Ha!!!

The other question I want an answer to is who is the better player K.Hunt or B.Slater???

Really could not care but thought it was worth at least thinking about.

One last thought.....Who is the ugliest footballer???

Past players Arthur Mountier and Gavin Miller get my vote by their 'busted-up' noses and of the current crop Carl 'LOOSE CANNON' Webb gets a mention...what a melon!!!

What does Carl get up to when not playing footy,surely he stands out like dogs balls when standing out there in the canefields in FNQ (Far North Queensland) and surely even the cane toads think he is uglier than themselves???

Hope he gets smashed up in State of Origin 2007.

Answer 8

Adam MacDougall.

He's the first to leave training, the first down at the pub, the first to whinge, and the first to get injured!

Answer 9

pretty sure it was shane werett won the stawell gift

Answer 10

Darren Clarke - Balmain Tigers

Answer 11

I think Scott Donald (ex Sea Eagles now the Mighty Rhinos) or Brent Webb (ex NZW now a Might Rhino!!)

That is from the Super League anyway :D
