[QUOTE="ranger, post: 368889, member: 40555"] I think the real issue is people having ridiculous expectations of how fast rugby players and even humans are. To put it in perspective, the all time New Zealand 4x100m relay record is 38.99 seconds. The personal best 100m time for one of the sprinters in that relay team (David Falelili) was 10.6. 10.6 seconds and he is a memeber of the fastest relay team NZ has ever produced. People need to realise that if a rugby player is running 100m under 12 then he is rapid. This expectation that every top rugby player must be 10.5 is just ridiculous [/QUOTE]
