You all seem to be trying to reason with an idiotic anti-Quins
troll.
Are you all really expecting him to start agreeing with you?
🤣

close. Wade is nowhere near the player he used to be (he's
properly dreadful now). Caluori does not have top tier pace yet.
Gabs is quick but it's his footwork that is elite, he's not got
the same top end speed as the top level guys though his
acceleration is *chef's kiss*. Brown-Bampoe is more power than
pace (big fan though) and IFW is also not as fast, though is
freakishly powerful and hard to tackle.

actually is in the same bracket, Josh Hodge around the same pace
(but not quicker as we saw at Twickenham). Arundell and Radwan
obviously quicker. At one point the Scottish winger at Sale
whose name escapes me looked like being a proper speed merchant
but not seen him for a while so can't be sure of my judgement of
his top end speed.

Just watched Jack van Poortvliet versus Murley.
Chef's kiss indeed. 👌🏻🤡

Indeed, it was a lovely solo try from JvP. Though given he
chipped over Murley, I'm really not sure what the point of your
comment is beyond "haha Murley isn't quick enough to turn 180
degrees and then catch a fast guy running full pelt" which is,
well, not anything
No that's not true, I do know your point - it's the same schtick
I've seen for years. You pick a Quins player and go to town on
them to rile Quins fans. Robshaw, Brown, Easter, Care, Smith,
and Murley. Good lord you've been doing this for a long time
Thanks for confirming you don't watch matches and only
occasionally see some highlights, though. Nice of you to join in
the opprobrium & call Quins craven and gutless without having
watched the match.

Well, size isn't everything. The Lions famously went up against
the giant Os du Randt with what would be considered small props.
And Vincent Koch isn't huge, but is very effective.
At the moment, England just don't have the front row players to
compete with the Boks. Not many nations do. I don't see that
changing for England.

I was looking for the USP acceleration that Murley has. Turns
out the fourth best English scrumhalf is quicker.
And btw, I always rated Nick Easter, proper no 8. Top player.

No wonder you have such weird ideas about who's quick if you
judge them based on whether they get beaten when they're
stationary and facing someone who chips them at speed. Very
normal and intelligent rugby analysis from the board's very own
Stephen Jones in clown makeup.
Funny thing is if you had actually watched the game you could've
had a field day with the actual issues Murley faced all game!

Size isn't everything, but being an absolute tank is generally
an advantage. He has the raw materials and is clearly talented.
I would've thought with the right coaching and development, he
could be a real force.
And the coaches should be thinking about SA now. Realistically,
to win the World Cup, we're going to have to beat them and
getting near parity up front will be needed. I accept its no
easy task. I just think Fasogbon might be better suited then say
Sela or Heyes.

Sela is a proper talent and Heyes is very good right now,
though. Fasogbon hasn't kicked on yet. Trouble is that the front
row is such a hard place to take a gamble on a young player at
international level, there's nowhere to hide and no one to take
the pressure off you.
