The team at RugbyDump dedicated their time to measuring the speed of England players during training sessions, and they found that Jonny May finished in second place, just behind the quickest player.

It comes as no surprise that May, known for his incredible speed, ranked highly on this list. However, he may have hoped to secure the top spot, given his trademark velocity.

Nevertheless, the fact that May managed to keep pace with teammates who are ten years his junior is a commendable achievement. It's a testament to his enduring athleticism and skill.

Take a look at RugbyDump's ranking below to see how the England players compare in terms of speed.
