Have made an edit to my OP, a disclaimer of sorts, if you will.

I didn't. He was my original number 4, even wrote a big blurb about him being a beach sprint champ, tenn I replaced him with Morris after I found out he only played 7 games for us.

I'm a little sceptical of cook over 100m though. Small short dudes don't tend to do well against gallopers like Usain Bolt or Josh Morris over 100.
Isn't Brett faster but Josh stronger?

It's hard to tell. Seems that way. I have a Feeling it's in the acceleration.
I didn't include Brett because when he came to us I felt he lost a bit of speed, but maybe he didn't.

It's like picking Mark Vermeulen in a fantasy cricket draft.
Do you rate him as the world class player he was between 2001-2004?
Or do you have to take into account when he got smashed in the head, got brain damage and went berserk, burnt down the national cricket academy, saying n****** ain't shit and basically wasn't the same after?

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.

Thanks.
You are entitled to your opinion but Barba wasn't that quick. He was quick but just looked quick. Not slow but not as quick as he seems.
Speed where it counted with Barba - he could see a break and accelerate into it. His ability to cut through a group of defenders was unbelievable. He could be run down, but scored most of the time, or had a support player to pass to ........ If we had the same type of support players now, we'd be scoring more tries.

Shame u didn't make it 1995 onwards coz our fastest of all time was Brett Dallas. In fact he would go close to fastest in the NRL all time. He was lightning

I would have been the fastest if you start from 1989 as my PB was 10.4 recorded at ES Marks athletics field.

We have a pretty quick squad atm smith Meaney Dwz and that but what we need are more explosive quick of the mark props. Glad we signed Thompson. Tolman and Napa may aswell walk to the line they’re that slow. Speed is power

Speed will overwhelm teams in 2021. Especially in the forwards.

we are building nicely.
DWZ,Meaney,Holland,Smith,JMK,Tolman,Thompson and Stimson are all players that would be defined as 'quick' by their relative positions.

if we can get fit and add a couple more big guys with acceleration, like a Fifita or Haase, we can engage in shock and awe tactics.
