England are deep into pre-World Cup training as we speak, with the players being put through the wringer with fitness tests, gym workouts, and gameplay drills. A video has today surfaced showing the England backs during a sprint training exercise, which gives us a genuine insight into the speed that some of these lads possess.
Professional players have plenty of data-capturing equipment on them nowadays giving us details on the distance they're running, the metres per second they're sprinting, and even the balls now have smart chips in them which details how long a box kick remains in the air.
The real question people want to know, however, is who would win in a race?
Well, fortunately for you, we boffins at RugbyDump have spent the past hour with a stopwatch in hand working that all out for you.
Unable to capture both Murley and Cokanasiga's time, we have decided that they're hovering around about the speed of light - but for those we could collect times on the video below, we have done so.
