[QUOTE="Gay-Guy, post: 12373"] So many factors involved in sprinting for rugby. First there is the sprig factor, sock factor, uniform factor. Then you have to make do with fitness at the time of the sprint, recovering from something or not. Lastly but most importantly is the ball or no ball factor. Very important. All these influence heavily when judging the fastest player on the FEILD, not the [i]track and field[/i]. Bobo and Chavagna are both proven as out of this world going in a straight line sprint WITH THE BALL in hand. Roko may have done well in the testing stats. But he is slow (especially takeoff) with the ball and sometimes even in defence (remember Mortlock in the RWC semi?). I would say it is a tie between Bobo and Chavag. Though Bobo has proven himself a little bit more on the international stage (P.I's vs S.A. Bobo makes Montgomery look as slow as his march to Berlin by leaving him behind in the sprint to the corner, then curling around to take it to the posts. You only do that to PROPS!) [/QUOTE]
