Who’s Richmond’s quickest player on our list

[Do the Dew]

Can't remember times when he flat out sprints, but Bolton would be up there for pure speed. Definitely one of our slipperiest/most evasive players - along with a greased up Dion.

 

[Who_Noes]

Bakes had a good turn of speed once or twice on Thursday night.

 

[SunshineBoy]

I think I read somewhere that Markov and Balta were two of the quickest in the league. Markov just has never been able to produce that speed on the field. Menadue was another fast runner. His game against Port Adelaide was good although I noticed he got caught in tackles a couple of times. As far as who's left in the team. Grimes for closing down on opponents, Balta for run and gun and an 80 m goal George's zigzag running. Rioli is the best for closing down an opponent and for out sprinting opponents. (Apology to Bellis for tan running)

Baker ran past McGrath in the druggies game as if McGrath was in quick sand.

George speed is almost cartoon like over short distance.

 

[Genghis Tron]

Markov is our fastest apparently. Remember reading it in an article somewhere

Ben Miller recorded a 20 mtr sprint time of 2.91 seconds

Dont think there will be many players that get below that time

That's quick but not that quick.

Markov and Balta would be in the 2.8s I reckon.

Baltov

 

[richcogs]

Our defensive if Markov can somehow cement himself as a regular would definitely be the quickest. Markov, Baker, Balta and Short.

 

[Tigerandy63]

Can't believe Short hasn't been mentioned. Has good gears and when he opens up, nobody can lay a finger on him.

Oleg Markov was 2.87secs
Noah Balta wasn't in the Top 10 (or perhaps didn't do the 20m test)

Miller's 2.91 is still an elite time, especially for a big man

Soldo?

 

[Rayzorwire]

Soldo?

He'll settle for having the best leap in the league.

Over a short distance burst it would have been butler

Deledio was 2.89 at the draft combine

 

[Grrr]

Deledio was 2.89 at the draft combine

Reece McKenzie was 2.87m, not bad for a 107kg kid.

 

[Phar Ace]

Markov recorded the quickest sprint in 2019 of the entire competition at 37.4kmh

And has used it to great affect in recent games

What could have been. Such a shame.

 

[tigerdan]

Markov is pretty bloody quick running down opponents with the ball.
