of cors this is just a game but its interesting to no what ea’s opinion is in my opinion…caucau was the fastest (when he was fit) followed by probably either habana or chavhanga…robinson number 1 for acceleration and fastest legs on any player…but i love how caucau runs…takes good long strides…if habana ran like that he would be even faster
Thanks for getting the speed info Elliot. One thing i liked about Caucau is he made time stop with his explosive running tempo, he knew exactly when to mix it up to take the opportunity to the max.
That’s why he always scores tries.
any winger with a star is automaticaly the fastest ..
4 me Robinson is the fastest player. .
thx 4 al the info
Missing from the book:
Lawrence Dallaglio- ENGLAND
Position: Number 8ยบ Rating: 96

Can you form more combinations than 1,2,3 and 9,10,12? I had Nonu and Rathbone paired at 12,13 and showing a green combination, but when I bought giteau at 10, the green went to 9,10,12 only and no longer showed for 12,13? can you get 9,10,12,13? what about 6,7,8 or 4,5 or 11,14,15? can anyone get better than 75% morale?
