If he was fastest starter in this league he'd be playing at stand off or some where...Craig needs put through a gap.He's not a Sam Obst from a standing start!

maden is quick over 100 metres it takes him about 30 to get going but craig would be in full flight id say after about 15-20 if you see his full lengether against hkr he is in full flight pretty quick

craig had a chest infection that match aswel i think craig will be just as quick if not quicker vanikiolo can run hundred meters in 11.9 seconds and hes 18/19 stone craig is about 13/14 so i think that wil answer ur question about losing speed

craig is the fastest winger i have seen in my time there aint nobody that will catch him if he gets away and u craig is a slow ish starter he picks his speed up as he makes the yards when he gets away there aint no stopping him the only way u could catch him is if u make a tackle on him soon as he gets the ball

I  wonder  why  they  have  never  had  another  fastest  RL  player  comp.  It  must  have  been  3  years  ago  they  had  the  last  one.

Don't think anyone disagrees about Calvert's pace, it would be nice to see him break a tackle when running ball out of defence. That's one area of his game he needs to work on.
