Josh Addo-Carr has reclaimed his title as the NRL’s fastest man! Full TelstraTracker details -
Josh Addo-Carr has bolted clear to reclaim his title as the NRL's fastest man having been clocked at 37.2km/h.
The Melbourne winger was trailing South Sydney's Alex Johnston and Brisbane's Xavier Coates, who both posted speeds of 36.9km/h in round six according Telstra Tracker data. But with one match to go in the regular season - for which he's being rested - the"Foxx" has usurped the pair thanks to his effort in last Saturday's 50-22 victory against the Wests Tigers.
He showed his extreme pace by running 60 metres and beating three defenders to score in the first half, but it was on a kick chase where he tackled BJ Leilua late in the game that he hit top gear.
