WARNING: Seven of the Scariest Rugby Players

Chabal is one of the most iconic figures in world rugby. Although he is retired now, the thought of playing against this guy in a sport with no padding is awfully scary. The man was 6’3 and 250 lbs and looks just like a henchman straight out of a James Bond movie. Not only does he look scary, he plays scary as his ferocious tackling is enough to strike fear into anyone who lines up against him.

With a nickname like ‘The Beast’, Tendai Mtawarira simply had to be on the list The loosehead prop weighs in at 18st4lbs, and at 6ft1, meaning he could crush you in his sleep.

Just look at Paul O'Connell. Just look at him. His skull could probably be used to demolish a prehistoric rock face. He's terrifying, end of.

Weighing just under 20 stone, Bastareaud is one of the scariest centres in world Rugby. The fact he doesn't care for the rules makes him an even more intimidating character.

If we came face to face with Castro in this mood we'd turn around and run away...

It would have been difficult to pick just one of the Tuilagi brothers as the scariest players in rugby, so it’s for the best that they’ve all been clumped together.

This face is scary enough to give your kids nightmares for weeks,
