Do eels have the slowest backline in the comp ?

Just watching manly fly past the dragons and it got me thinking, we must have the slowest backline in the comp ? I'd say Moses or ado Carr are our fastest players but the rest move in slow motion ? Oh and TDS is probably up there. Need to sign some serious speed

  • Players like Bostock or Mariner make sense because they are genuinely fast and don't move like Junior Paulo. That's a few guys I'd target lol 

  • Not really 

    1.Isiah iongi-Pretty quick

    Simmo-Pretty quick 

    just penis and samrani 

    • I've noticed Iongi isn't overally fast, decent but one of the slower fbs in the comp. Does a lot of good things but genuine speedster he is not. Simmo probably all the injuries have got him used to be fast. I just think we lack pace 

    • Then you throw in Volkman who is probably the slowest half I've seen 🤣 good step but lol 

  • Yes, our only backs that have a bit of speed is JAC and Simonsson 

    • yeah although our backs are really strong, Kelly penisini Samrani and even Bailey ado Carr do carry it strong. Just need some speedsters for variety  

  • Think the dogs are pretty bog slow 

    • Them and panthers last night was rough lol, Too' is insanely slow 

  • Imagine if we still had old man Gutho and snail Sivo

    • In 2023, Sivo was clocked as the third fastest player in the NRL...

      • Ronaldo Mulitalo (Cronulla Sharks): 37.188 km/h
      • Jason Saab (Manly Sea Eagles): 37.116 km/h
      • Maika Sivo (formerly Parramatta Eels): 36.864 km/h
