How fast is Henry Arundell? The England player quicker than Louis Rees-Zammit

1. HENRY ARUNDELL – England – 10.9 SECONDS (100m)

The 20-year-old with an impressive showreel is scheduled to play a role in Twickenham against Italy, despite having only 30 minutes of club rugby experience following foot surgery.

Owen Farrell compared the Exiles speedster to an England legend.

He said: “I remember growing up, watching Wigan, and then into rugby union, every time Jason Robinson got the ball, something would happen.

“I’m not comparing him, but he’s got a bit of that about him, Henry. He’s got everything when it comes to a running game.

“People have speed, strength, can ride tackles, feet – well, usually people have one maybe two of them. He’s got it all.”

Farrell added: “When you watch him, and I watched him play for London Irish and saw that unbelievable try he scored against Toulon, you think ‘brilliant’.

“Then he comes on the Australia tour and he was doing that in training every other day. When he got the ball in his own 22 and he was against you, you were thinking: ‘Anything could happen here.

“There are not too many people who do that, who put everyone on the edge of their seat when they get the ball. He is one.”
