We all know it. It’s only a matter of time before the zombie apocalypse begins, and so with that morbid fact in mind, we here at RUCK would like to let you know which rugby players might survive to play another day.
10. James Haskell
James Haskell has excellent stamina, and strength, which would come in handy during a zombie apocalypse, but his unwillingness to give up his Instagram and Twitter may ultimately be his downfall.. One simply can not be distracted during a zombie apocalypse.
9. Bakkies Botha
Botha’s rugby rap sheet reads like the screenplay to a horror film:
-
-
- “Deliberately attacking the face” (eight-week suspension)
- Stamping (yellow card)
- Alleged eye-gouging (nine-match ban)
- Striking (three-match ban)
- Dangerous charge (two-week ban)
- Dangerous clearout (four-week suspension)
- Headbutting (nine-week suspension)
-
The zombies aren’t going to play fair, so you shouldn’t either. Why not take up with someone who can show you a dirty move or two? Or seven.
8. Sebastien Chabal
TotalProSports.com names Chabal as the number one biggest badass in the history of rugby. And he sure looks the part, doesn’t he? In his native France he’s known as L’Homme des cavernes. Yeah, you guessed it: Caveman.
See Sebastien decimate anything in his path with the intensity of a class 5 twister. See him turn some of the burliest men on the planet to quivering boys.
While the undead don’t seem to emote fear, they will at least be inconvenienced as Chabal clears a path for you with one of his signature charges and sends them flying like so many bowling pins.

He’d take his family in a helicopter and fly them to safety. With his leadership skills he could be the President of the new world. Who better?
