I can think of perhaps two or three. Peter Fox and Lee Smith being it.

And I don't recall either beating anyone on pace alone I think Richards has done a long range try once or maybe twice this season [ugiven a start[/u. Roberts has not scored one such try and I don't think either of them have left anyone for dead. And before anyone says "you can't expect Martin Offiah pace anymore" these two are not as fast as Mark Preston, Henderson Gill, Brett Dallas or even - dare I mention his name, Mark Calderwood. There is no substitute for pace.

I'm sure they play for diff clubs.
The fact that Jukes is tryna make is that we have two of the best wingers IN ONE TEAM. However they both Aussies so they both crap

| Quote DaveO="DaveO"There is no substitute for pace.'"
People keep saying it and saying that but does anyone ever really question it? I think Calderwood proved that there is a substitute for pace, even in a winger things like the ability to outjump defenders (Richards), strength (Vainikolo) and agility (Robinson). I would back Calderwood to beat all three of those in a race, but I'd pick all three ahead of him. Of course wingers have to be fast but there's more to it than that. iIn my opinion a more accurate saying would be "There's no substitute for momentum"

I must have been watching a different Calderwood he was fast at Leeds but when he was at Wigan and now Hull, my 80 year old nan could out run him.

I bet she couldn't!
Along with 90% of the other wingers in SL!
Name me 1 occasion when at Wigan where he got in the clear and got caught?
