Who's the most Athletic Rugby Player

[McTallshort]

Which player is the biggest athlete i.e. the most pace, strength, power and stamina combined.

I think this will mostly be backrows, centres and wingers. Nominate who you think is the most athletic. I may even make a poll but if you don't like polls post and I won't.

As I already have the tag of being biased the most athletic Irish player at least I'd say is Ferris. Strongest in the squad and one of the fastest forwards in the game also incredibly powerfull.

Most athletic in the world maybe not but he's up there there's a whole host of winger (mainly from New Zealand) that I can think of. Oh and of course only players that are currently playing so no Jonah Lomu.

Sorry if this annoys people but I'm bored.

No way Tom Croft is way more athletic than Ferris...........oh come on!

In all seriousness Tom Croft is very athletic and very fast for a forward. Great line out jumper and can score tries most centres would be proud of. Also described by Ian Mcgeechan as having the biggest engine of any player he knew.

Nah Croft's fast and fit but not that strong for a 6.

Talking about athleticism not ability. What other threads has it happened in apart from one on the Lions thread?

It boils down to the same argument, one of you think one is better than the other and neither of you are going to back down. The forum doesn't need you going about essentially spamming the boards with the same posts. So cut it out.

Hung, drawn and quartered or something worse been made cmacs sex doll perhaps? (not that it could ever happen)

Spies, SBW, Lawes, O.Franks, Genia.

Basing this purely off what I believe that they can play (or have played) multiple pro sports.

I'd put rRichie in tehre -reckon he'd make an awesome 'Mike' backer in the NFL.
