Nasheed here,
Sitting up here all night posting doing speed has made me think about speed in general about the bulldogs.
ive always been attracted to the fast players. Strangely, the dogs have had a notoriously slow roster for as long as I remember. As @2144superman keeps pointing out, the current dogs lineup could well be the quickest. Although I'd argue 2018 was because of Rhyse martins presence, officially the fastest second rower in 20-9, a season that he didn't complete.
I want to be clear about a rule. They just have played 10 first grade games for the dogs. 10! I don't want it to devolve like some of my other posts where niggas ain't reading the rules and this thread is bombarded with 'LeoN BoTt tHE FaStESt EvER' even though he never made it to first grade.
here's mine anyway.
1. Brett 'the snippet' Howland. I don't think anyone would seriously disagree with this one. He was a fast guy who played at a fast time in the NRL. When we had quality athletes in the comp before they all bulked up like the black pornstar guy on WhatsApp (circa 2006). Howland was considered the second fastest player in a comp with Darren Albert, Rhys Wesser,Eric Grothe. All guys who ran sub 11. Id guesstimate snippet was about a 10.6 hundred guy, and Albert around 10.4 (actually a massive difference at those speeds). Rhys apparently 10.6 as well but I think Howland has him. Either way, he's #1 for this thread.
2. Reimis 'uncle' Smith
Just the fact his name pops up as a possibility of being the fastest atm gott make him fast. I would guesstimate he's an 11 flat guy. Hard to see him in full stride but yeah
3. nick Meaney
Meant to be faster than Reimis. How's that work? Maybe he should be 2.
4. Josh Morris
Slow off the mark, but I promise you this nice guy was built for speeed. He and his little Brother had almost the perfect natural build for sprinting. Super long legs and twitch fibres. He would mow down anyone in space so much so that Jim's mowing blushed. Even Jennings with a 20 m head start. If not for sluggish start off the mark I would say he would be number 1 with acceleration. Probably the quickest on the list 50-100 in a 100m race. 11.2 my guess.
5. rod silva.
We all know him. Fast but not lightning but still very fast. Probably an 11.4 guy.
special mentions;
Brett Morris (remember we got him at 32 years old) Damien Ford, Ben Barba, arana taumata, JMK, Jason Williams, Nigel Vagana, Josh Reynolds, Jamal lolesi, Kerrod Holland, Rhyse Martin, Makasini richter.
nasheed.
EDIT:
If I had a time machine and could go back in time, Moses Mbye would be my fifth pick. I'm also aware of Cooks existence but he only played 7 games for us.
With this added information, I am extremely confident in my list and back it entirely. In my mind, the only thing left to debate is the order.
