Is anyone quicker than this guy over 50 metres? Cyril can't keep up. Dangerfield can't touch him.

Alan Toovey would be in with a shot. Caolan Mooney might push him. Tim Golds is lightening.

Who is the number 1 challenger? My vote would be this guy. He's not even going at full speed and he burns everyone off:

I think Danger and Cyril would be 2nd and 3rd to Jetta

your kidding about Tambling right? he got the ball a few meters ahead of anyone running behind him and he did not exactly run a great distance

besides that it was over 3 years ago

Well Joel Wilkinson has the record at the draft combine for fastest 20m sprint time...

Rumours out of Sydney suggest Rohan could give him a run for his money,excuse the pun.

Well at first I thought the same but review it, he starts on the half back flank and quite frankly its pretty quick. But your right it is 2009 and this year he played a fair bit in the SANFL.

What about buddy? Or does he take too long to warm up, probably win over 200-400m...

Dangerfield has already beaten Jetta over 100m in the grand final sprint from last year.  Stephen Hill was also in that race and was leading by the 50m mark - he gets up to speed very very quickly but his top speed isnt the same as Danger and Jetta

Over 100m

Jetta

Over 50m

Hill wasn't in that race valk ???
Just watched it on youtube and Dangerfield was leading the entire race except for possibly the first 10-15m where Joel Wilkinson was ahead. Tim Golds came second followed by Wilkinson and Jetta equal third. Jetta was never near the front of the pack.

Must be a different race then - I remember a race where Hill was out of the blocks real quick then got caught up and swallowed by the pack

2009 Hill was miles ahead after about 10m. Than Rhys Stanley went on to win.

Honestly think Deledio would be up there tbh.
