Fastest players at Rugby World Cup
6. VIRIMI VAKATAWA - France - 11.3 SECONDS (100m)
He truly is such a talented player. The Fijian-born French International has played at an unreal level for Racing 92 of late and will be a key part of Les Bleus World Cup campaign. His speed and power make him a unique player.
5. JACOB STOCKDALE - Ireland - 11.35 SECONDS (100M)
In March 2018, Stockdale received the 2018 Six Nations Player of the Tournament Award after setting a try-scoring record of 7 as Ireland claimed the title and won their first Grand Slam since the 2009 victory. Unplayable on his day.
4. ANTHONY WATSON - England - 11.2 SECONDS (100m)
Once ran a 100 metres in 11.2secs at a school sports day and his raw pace saw the 21-year-old have a trial for Premier League giants Chelsea. Helped England Under-20s beat Wales in the final of the 2013 Junior World Cup before making the step up to the Test side.
3. JONNY MAY – England – 10.71 SECONDS (100M)
The speedster clocked 10.71 for the 100 metres. With a strong argument to be England’s quickest wide man ever, May is gradually improving his finishing prowess and is now arguably the first name on the teamsheet for head coach Eddie Jones.
2. CHESLIN KOLBE - South Africa - 10.7 SECONDS
This was the Springbok speedsters time from school so he could be possible even quicker now!
1. SBU NKOSI - South Africa - 10.59 SECONDS
Comes with a deceptive frame, which makes him a stocky 97kg, despite being 2cm shy of being 1.8m tall. Couple that with the speed that saw him clock 10.59 seconds over 100m and the footwork that make him almost impossible to defend against at times.
