In case you didn’t already know it, Christian Wade is a veritable speed merchant.

If our word isn’t enough for you, ask Leinster’s Ian Madigan, the man whom the English winger burns for pace during Wasps Champions Cup defeat to Leinster last weekend.

This is a video, we suspect, Ian Madigan won’t want to see again.

On the evidence of this video, Scots College Sydney are better than your school team.

Deft hands, incisive lines, pace and steps, the Sydney based school team has it all.

Strikingly, their backs and forwards seem almost interchangeable with their forwards having a very rounded game and able to pass, evade and turn on the afterburners.

Telusa Veainu, of Melbourne Rebels, scored a try of immense pace and evasion for his NRC team, The Melbourne Rising, recently.

Jack Debreczeni collected a grubber and sumptuously offloaded to Veainu who pinned his ears back and went 80 metres unscathed to score.

By fans, journalists and fellow players alike, it is unanimously agreed that, during his peak years, Rupeni Caucaunibuca was one of the most destructive and powerful running forwards of the professional Rugby era.

And, standing five foot eleven and weighing well excess of seventeen stone, well he should be.

Together, power, pace and evasion is a powerful army of attributes in Rugby and Caucaunibuca had all of those qualities, in spades.
