[QUOTE="gingergenius, post: 390017, member: 33219"] this topic seems to be drawing the same idiotic comments you get on every 'fastest' debate. let's be logical: Someone with a top speed rating of 100 would have to be Usain Bolt, because he represents as fast as man can go. Based on that, no rugby player should have that kind of speed. Other Olympic standard sprinters would have to be 98/99. Based on that, there can be a select group of players who you give ratings of 95+ to. These really have to be the players who are universally accepted as sprinters - the likes of Ngwenya and Varndell. I'd be surprised if there are more than 8 of these speed merchants. Anyone else, it's up for debate. I'm guessing guys like Sivivatu and Shane Williams who are known for being pretty damn quick would fit in to the 90-94 bracket. And Shane Williams fans, you can always max out his acceleration and agility, which are where his real talents lie anyway - straight line speed he'll get burnt by a number of players though. Either way, if they put in the roster/ player editor I've been screaming for then it'll all be irrelevant, since we can tweak it to match our own perceptions anyway. [/QUOTE]
