[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 681537, member: 24910"] Savea is fast. He may not be Habana, but he has genuine pace. He would clearly be the quickest outside back in the current ABs squad; Barrett is probably the only one in the squad that may match him for pace. He is clearly faster than Gear IMO. Piutau isn't exactly slow either - I would rate him as having the same sort of pace as Gear (more than quick enough for test rugby!). If playing wing was solely about running fast Fiji would certainly have a handful of wings in the 'top 10 in the world', though the best wing in the world would be from the USA ;) However there is far more to playing on the wing than running fast.....
