Hold onto your hats, rugby fans, because there’s been a shake-up in the rankings of the speediest players on the planet! 🚀
Taking the crown as the fastest rugby player in the world is none other than Christian Wade, clocking an incredible 25.1mph! After a stint in the NFL, Wade is back to burning up the field with Newcastle Red Bulls.

Kieran Marmion, another standout at Bristol Bears, hits 23.94mph. Born in England, raised in Wales, and previously capped for Ireland, Marmion is dazzling on both sides of the Severn.
Completing the top five is New Zealand’s Rieko Ioane, who races down the field at 23.9mph, showcasing why he’s one of rugby’s most fearsome talents.
And let’s not forget about Henry Arundell from Bath and England—though he narrowly misses the top five, he’s known for blistering speed that makes him one to watch.
