I like this discussion. I asked a similar question over at the LU forums, and basically got personally attacked for proposing a bunch of ideas for discussion, lol!

The Morris boys have a lot of toe for the 100 metres. Shaun Johnson would be good over 40 but be caught by some of the quicker guys in the 100.

Do the Morris twins have that top level of speed though? They aren't slow by any means, but don't remember them being super super quick either.

It's just nice coming into pre season and we are discussing how fast a couple of our backline members are and not complaining that we have the slowest backs in the comp ☺

we could have the fastest if we killing it when reed is out and can't make it back into the top side as we will have anderson, roberts, oats, kahu, milford in the backs, while Hunt and Boyd also are decent runners

I think Edrick Lee would beat Roberts in a sprint, Lee has pace whereas Roberts has agility/Acceleration imo

They have both mowed Inglis down in origin a couple of times whilst giving him a decent head start.

Roberts gains like 3 or 4m's on him in 70m's, with Lee carrying a ball (biomechanically it would **** up your stride).

He dived cause he knew he wouldn't catch him

Roberts had to stop. Turn then start from a stop where as Lee was running onto it. Roberts gobbled him up!
