What about kolbe, Arendse, moodie, senatla, or specman.. these videos are so biased and narrow minded it’s actually funny..
These guys are really good but not the fastest kolbe is 10.70 habbana was quicker
Moodie ain't that fast
I love the video, very interesting. But I feel an honourable meention here is Seabelo Senatla, he played 7s for the blitzboks. He moved to the 15 code and played for the stormers. I could be mistaken but he ran the 100m in 10.60s.
And Trae Williams is also quite fast from Australian 7s, he was a 100m sprinter and has a PB of 10.10s.
Thanks! Yes, two players there who are definitely deserving of being on this list! Seabelo Senatla is an bronze medalist himself from the 7s at the 2016 games.
What a joke ngwenya.. It’s obvious Habana was in the back foot and had to reset while he had to adjust and start chasing.. biggest joke of a comparison EVER!!
Yeah, that's my thought exactly, Habana was facing the other direction and had to turn and adjust
What about Cheslin Kolbe dude?
He was so close to getting on our list and is probably on many others as he is lightning quick! We did manage to sneak him onto our thumbnail so not to leave him out completely! Great player and a great man.
@@BackToTheRugby research his family history
Yes and Jason Robinson
Completely stupid. Put a rugby fast guy on a track with bolt. Put bolt on a grassy field with a ball in hand and lets see.
think bolt will still win on both situations, we talking about the fastest man to ever live.
I don't know why people are complaining over this list.
@@AnelePoni it’s caused a bit of a stir with some!
Oh you are so incomplete with this list so please spare a thought for Aphelele Fassi - a freak of nature and apart from his incredible raw pace he is fearless in the air, unbelievable under the Gary Owen and can step a defender in a phonebooth. Come on man some of the fellows on this list are also one-dayflies and their influence was only for a short while. Look at Christian Cullen not making this list either. A man who could run from tryline to tryline. Takudzwa Ngwenya should also not be mentioned. I am interested in seeing a list with Rugby Players who made their mark in Test Rugby and who played at least 30 games. Just a thought.
Do you have comparisons over the first 30-40m? Rugby players tend to have explosive speed. You might also want to look at Cheslin Kolbe.
Not on hand but that would be interesting for sure. Cheslin would high on that list for sure. His explosive power and speed is second to none!
Jaco Reinach. Set the 400m South African record at age 16, beating the precious record by 0.5 seconds. His SA record stood for 16 years.
Previous *
But not the 100m bru... This is based on 100m pace
I knew this would be shaky with just how many Americans there are 😂 I’m not even gonna finish the video and if Kolbe and Dyantyi aren’t here, it’s a lie
Ferdinand Omanyala was a previous Rugby Sevens player and competed in the Olympics 2024 100m final. His also the current 100m African record holder with a time of 9.77 seconds. He also broke the 9.80 sec barier just before the 2024 Olympics he is supposed to be number one on your list. His from Kenya 🇰🇪 check him out.
Cheslin Kolbe...
Without doubt in with a shout! Someone in our research team needs a talking to 🤣
Terrific compilation. Enjoyed that! Where do you think Jonah Lomu ranks? He is a phenomenon that always sticks in my head.
Thanks for your comment! Jonah Lomu comes close for sure! He was a superstar of the game and one of the best wingers of all time. He just misses out here when it comes for pure pace in our opinion. Definitely a top 10 rugby GOAT though!
What about Cheslin Kolbe, his speed is faster than Joah Lomo (who you also forgot btw). Also there is Springbok's Cannon Moodley and Kurtley Arendse
Had to draw the line somewhere for this one! Canan Moodie, Kurt-Lee Arendse and Kolbe top speedsters as was Jonah Lomu. Plenty more alongside!
Yeh, none of these sub 10 sec, would like to see Arendse, Moodie, Fassie and Kolbe (there are 2 or 3 others) take on our SA 4x100 relay.
I don't think habana is even in the top 20 fastest RSA players.
Brent Russel
Senatla
Dyantyi
Hougard
Spies
Kobus reinach
Jean de Villiers
Dani gerber
Are some of RSA fastest players. You can even add from some of the current crop
Grant Williams SA9 is the fastest bok ever imo. He is actually a winger, he is even faster than Mapimpi who is our fastest winger.
Let this guy get time to identify the bést..( quickest from the mark and highest % scorer in reàl rugby otherwise he should just close this down..be more diligent..
There is to much player's that you miss that is so much better than these guys 🇿🇦
We could do a top 100 and still be wrong! 🤣
Great video. However, the Chiefs dropped LRZ where he got picked up by the Jackson Jaguars.
Thanks for the comment! Yes, unfortunately timing got the better of us there! Hopeful that LRZ takes his second chance and makes a success of the switch to the NFL, although no doubt will take time. Do you think he will be one of the few converts to succeed?
Not a chance, most would struggle to make the Olympic qualifying time.
Angelo Davids is faster than Carlin Isles
Bro are you nuts? they for sure do not make their best times on the grass and with Rugby boots. they have made these times on a proper track then on the grass the run significantly slower. Plus, no way he would do the semi. maybe if he start to train just for this but boy everyone who get in the semi is a sub 10 seconds season best time
Us nuts? Maybe a just a little! Thanks though for your comment. Our video is somewhat hypothetical (also a bit of fun) but who knows what Carlin Isles could achieve after some training, on a clear track and with not one defender in front of him!
That false those rugby player can't even reach sub 10se ond
Habana was very poor on defence. Scared to tackle.
What a joke! A solid HS track athlete is probably going to beat the fastest rugby players as it’s 5% genetics, 95% training. Track speed is totally different.
A very British and consequently biased posting🤮
