The refs don't need to get angry in rugby because all the players hold the utmost respect for the ref. YOu should find a video of 'Nigel Owens' best reffing moments. A world class ref with a wicked sense of humour!
Amen Sir, amen!
Nigel Owens was more feared on the pitch than this whole list put together!
As a New Zealander, I think my favourite player who wasn't an All Black is Sébastien Chabal.He monstered & was monstered by some of our best. No fear,just deep respect for an uncompromising hard man on the field,& a humble giant off
Sébastien Chabal played very hard but was perfectly within the rules (well most of the time). He made the glory days of the Racing Club de France. In "civilian" life he is a man of great kindness and gentleness, almost self-effacing. Quite a contrast with his life on the ground.
Eric champ
Sounds like a true gentleman 😊
Actually when it was said "he raises bears for fun" makes me think about the valentine's chabal bear
RIP Jonah Lomu tragically died to young His life long kidney disease ment he was probably never at 75 -80% could reach peak speed in 3strides 10.6 100mtr he was phenomenal
😢😢
The late great Jerry Collins is definitely one to fear on the field. He was a defensive beast.
Chabal's nickname was the caveman and what a player he was and that's coming from an Englishman sidenote off the the pitch he is the nicest fella you would care to meet
Chabal was an absolute animal!!
Seabass in my fantasy 15.
im french and we have a saying, " mmmm chabal, will make you love meat "
@@Oeld90 mmmmhhh no 😂
i know growing up in ireland we all called him horse
In Rugby no one is tryna get out of the way haha. Way more embarrassing not to try than to to try and fail
As it should be!
@@RealFansSports so much respect for the little man who gets run over but still put his heart in it
Number 5, Henry Tuilagi's son, Posolo has just started playing pro rugby. Man is 18 years old, 6'4" and 330lbs 😅
To be fair, the players do respect the ref's in Rugby... more than in most games.
You dudes need to see Jona Lomu. What a player. One of the greatest to ever live. R. I. P.
THE greatest.
Remember, the #4s and #5s are typically 6' 5" to 6' 9" and weigh ~ 260lbs. If you see them tackling a #1, #2 or #3, those guys are usually 265lbs to 280lbs.
RIP Jonah forever a legend in life and the game. South Africa loved and still loves you!
Great reaction guys. You mention the ref's being scared of the players. Ooooooooooooooh no! The levels of respect the ref's get shown is stunning. If you want to see what I mean check out, 10 minutes of Nigel Owens being Nigel Owens. Yep. There are compilation videos of rugby REF'S laying the law down. & Nigel is the GOAT!!!
That’s awesome to hear! I know sports around the world aren’t often like that! And ok sweet I’ll add him to our reaction list! Thanks for checking out the video’
@@RealFansSports The great thing is the ref's are all mic'd up, ear beads to hear from the commentators box calling in fouls, & body cams. If you go to a match you can actually tune in yo listen to the ref's for the whole game. Before you check out Nigel there is 1 little thing you need to know, & this is going to sound weird now. While an international ref Nigel came out as homosexual. You will see why I tell you this when you check out his vid. Dude is BRUTAL! 🤣
When the lineout throw wasn’t straight 😂
@@ness-ee that's the one 🤣 Nigel is the GOAT!
Someone might have mentioned this but Jonah Loma (A beast and one of the best left wings to ever play the game) never scored a test try against the South Africa. What a player and what a defense!
Die Hard makes some good rugby compilations. I’ll just be biased and ask you to react to the Unstoppable Springbok Wings.
Those Fijians are absolute monsters!! You do not want to be stood in front of one on full charge! 😂😂
Theres only one man on the field who scares the bejeezuz out of ANY rugby player...The Ref! He is the almighty for the entirety of the game! 😂❤
Etzebeth is the equivalent to an NHL enforcer I guess. Very rare i see him start anything but always happy to finish it
A lot of these guys are real gentlemen off the field, or right after the game
GREAT reaction dudes! Loved it.
Dudes, I'm a small guy. Nevertheless, If any of these guys steam rolled me, my first instinct is to keep hold of the ball. Then play the ball behind me to keep the play going. Then get up and back into position. And when the phase (play is over, think about and start to feel the initial hit.. NFL just stops after a play. Some Rugby phases go on for 20/30 phases. Ball always live, and players always on their toes - Staying onside and getting involved in mid-phase plays that only an NFL QB would try pull off.
Polynesians are just built different!
I've had my head hit the ground from hard hits and your ears ring, you see stars, shrug it off and play on...... if you can stand up 😂😂
These rugby Union players are tough bastards but when they are talking to the ref they are respectful and polite
I recall seeing Schalk Burgers feet in flip flops, he walked pass me and I was looking down.. His toes were longer than my feet.
Thats one hell of a video and reaction 🔥
The guy at number 7 came back from life threatening illness to playing his best rugby and being a world champion
Bakkies 😂🎉🎉🎉 I loved watching him... Pierre Spies also
As a kiwi I loved I loved schalk burger.
Just remember NFL teams were offering jonah lomu $10 million contracts in the 90's and 00's to play for them
He's actually the base template for the modern NFL Running back. He didn't just change Rugby
you should check out Rene Ranger , Jerry Collins and Manu Vatuvai you will see more hits than a jukebox
These countries from the South Sea Islanders, like Fiji, Samoa and the Cook Islanders, along with New Zealand, Australia, south Africa, and many others play hard.
Man, the ref is not scared. They have mad respect. Perhaps you guys can react to rugby referees. you will see ;)
We actually have one set up to react to soon! Keep a look out for it!
A fun video, but sadly the source did only focus on the big hitters, some of the most feared players are some of the smallest. A few to look out for are Shane Williams, Jason Robinson and Cheslin Colby, the epitomy of rugby is a game for all body types, and guys who would have you trying to clutch thin air
Jonah Lomu was suffering from chronic kidney disease. One of the greatest Rugby players of all time. May his soul rest in peace!
Dallas Cowboy's asked Lomu to tryout but Lomu wanted to stay with us 👍🏽
Gotta respect the loyalty tp his team and his love for the sport!
A legal,tackle has to be below the shoulder line and the tackler has to wrap their arms otherwise it,is a shoulder barge or body check which would be a penalty. Other big players....Micky Skinner (ENG) .....and of course Jonah Lomu has loads! Happy new year guys..
Jerry Collins R.I.P was a flanker to fear not much ran straight at him even Chabal passed the ball when he saw Jerry
This is just ageing me but this is a list for the modern era, not all time. The size of the players has definitely transformed out of sight but the enforcers of the amateur era were another breed, especially before cameras became ubiquitous. Also worth noting the Tuilagis are an absolute rugby dynasty that would put the Mannings to shame. Six brothers all played professionally as have three of the younger generation. Its worth getting some highlights of the whole clan because dear god they were brutal. Also Brian Lima aka The Chiropractor belongs on this list. Ditto Julian White, if for no other reason than wearing a sucker punch from his opposite number (280lb international prop Andrew Sheridan) like it was nothing, then dropping him with a single blow.
Colin Meads? Jerry Collins?Buck Shelford?Alain Esteve?Sonny Bill Williams?Willie John?A thousand mad South Africans
Go watch Cheslin Kolbe the ultimate athlete, he really is one of the goats !
Jonah Lomu was the real freak.
Eben and Bakkies from the Springboks 🇿🇦
There isn't a better sport, Rugby allday every day. I'm 47 today, and I haven't played in over 10 yrs. Daam I miss playing this game
I feel you on that with other sports! Sucks not being able to go out and with boys and just go and play whether its competitive or just friendly
Eben Etzebeth is an ex doors man for some of the roughest bars in SA.
Bit like bakkie Botha
All the South Africans ❤️
Hear to pay my respects to uncle Jerry! Beast of a man but what a caring soul off the field!
On aurait bien aimé une rencontre Lomu vs Chabal, hélas le plus fragile des deux nous a quitté prématurément...
Lol they didnt realize tuilagis are 3 brothers 😂
Please do the video of nr 3 Eben Etzebeth. From the Springboks 🇿🇦. It's called the greatest enforcer of all time. I'm subbing from South Africa 🇿🇦
Hey boys great video. The US has a great rugby comp.
alesana and henry tuilagi are brothers . henry's son Posolo plays for France
There are so many great rugby players , but undoubtedly more from SA and NZ , the Springboks and All Blacks have dominated the game , 7 world cups between them. Now and again the northern hemisphere has a nation to rival the southern hemisphere . Springboks for life.
Have you seen/reacted to any Vinnie Jones compilations. He plays tough guys in movies now but he played tough guy in the football field back in the day
You guys should live stream the NRL state of origin this year.. if your allowed! Enjoyable commentary fellas
Appreciate you! We did a live stream the last two years and definitely plan on doing it again this year!
Shame Americans don't watch a full game of Rugby; and see how it doesn't Stop every 2 Minutes like American Football.
We have watched several games of rugby so... take your comment to another channel
@@RealFansSportslove the reply.
😅when you see these guys come out on the pitch they are all bloody frightening.
Bukies Botha has his own video of hardest hits. The badest of the bad that guy ! and I gigantic monster of a man.
Bakkies is by all accounts a lovely fellow off the field, but he was bloody terrifying when he was in green and gold
He should have been banned from playing rugby
@@KekeHimona Not disagreeing, he was a dirty dirty bastard, but he apparently now leads the choir at his local Dutch Reform Church. Perhaps God has forgiven him.
Naaah, the refs in rugby are the chillest dudes and well respected.
We see that! We actually have a reaction coming out soon to Nigel Owens. That guy might be the best ref i have ever seen across all sports. straight class
Check-out Cheslin Kolbe "The Ultimate Athlete" plays for South African 'Springboks' x4 World Champion (although he aprt of World Champion-side twice) & "Speed Kill" ( another "Die Hard Rugby" Video) if you wld like to see sum Top-tier Athletes of the Game.... Can also check-out "Most Feared Team" (also "Die Hard Rugby" Videos) featuring South African 'Springboks' & New Zealand 'All Blacks' two of the most dominant-forces of World Rugby (this is all Rugby Union)!!!!
Bakkies Botha he invented hard hits in rugby he’s original enforcer who brought violence he hurts and put lots of rugby players in a life changing injuries some retired referee were so afraid of him cause he can rubbish you right in that field and never care about the outcome then he will laugh when you’re been taken to hospital that’s what makes him extremely dangerous rugby player in a history of rugby but he was our South African boy.🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
3:45 we got some union in here? Everything to thst point was union bro
Yeah it was the first one I knew for sure. First few guys wasn’t 100% sure. I made a mistake on the research of the video and thought it was a mixture. That’s my bad
@@RealFansSports ha only playing. In fairness it can be hard to tell.
Believe me Eben was more afraid of the ref than the ref was of Eben.. In rugby NO player is afraid of the ref
Mamuka Gorgodze should be on this list... Georgian Nightmare put Georgia on the map...💯💪
You mention the respect for "effort" by the smaller guys. Trust, doesn't matter if you take a monster down. Just slowing them down slightly pays huge dividends.. As mentioned before, we grow up learning how to play Rugby. And part of that is taking hits from dudes twice your size. Remember. The ball is always live... Love the show boys - Respect from WYUK
Check out the Hardest Hitter Jacques Burger, some proper hits
#6 & #5 are brothers. They both played for Samoa. They have a younger brother that played for England.
Chabal was one SCAAAARY dude and a force of nature!
Bakkies Botha...the ENFORCER!!!!
Brian Lima - Rugby's Hardest Ever Hitter
RUGBY = RUGBY UNION
yeah league is NRL. We are aware of the differences. We did a reaction to a video by this channel before and it had some league in it as well and thought that would be the case on this one, but it wasnt.
You can dive to tackle in rugby as long as it's not above the shoulders
Why are Americans loving rugby ATM. It's crazy❤
LOL I dont know probably a lot of feedback after the event for league in Las Vegas. We were introduced to it a couple years back and have really enjoyed it!
in France we have a brand that produces meat (steak & others) called Charal, and the advertising of this brand on television says: Hmmmm charal (hahaha charal chabal :D) sorry for translation peace & love friends Us
Rugby players are wayyyy fitter than NFL players due to the continuous pattern of the game,no stop-start like in NFL
That’s not what this video is about but also is just not true.
Don't confuse fitness with stamina. It's like comparing a distance runner and a 100m sprint specialist, different requirements, different training, you can't say one is more fit than the other. NFL and Rugby are not the same thing, both have players that go hard and train harder. Why can't people just enjoy a sport, it doesn't have to be a "but my sport is better" argument all the time. Most NFL fans I know have loved watching rugby too, it's got many of the same exciting factors they love about the NFL but it's also it's own thing. I think the main issue is that American Football is hard to follow for those not aware of all the rules and culture surrounding it. Even with a friend explaining everything to me it took me a while to really get into and enjoy. Now I have the pleasure of enjoying both sports and sharing my passion for rugby with my friends in the US. It's worth noting, many of my American friends didn't even want to give rugby a look because of all the hate/insults rugby fans throw at American football. It took some effort to explain to them that if they love American Football, they will probably also enjoy rugby seeing as they share some common history. Show your friends what you love about a sport and they will enjoy it with you, make fun of what they love and they will hate both your opinion and your sport without ever giving it a chance.
@@Xaltar_ couldn’t agree more! And yeah I understand how some of your friends felt when we first started our rugby content. The crazy unrelated hate we got for liking the NFL was insane 😂 and you are right NFL definitely is hard to watch for the first time and be able to get into it. It really takes about a full year of watching it to understand certain strategies, the different penalties and how using the play clock to your advantage is crucial. They have similar concepts but as a whole the sports are so very much different and require different styles of training to be elite in the individual sports. Much like all sports. These people are professionals for a reason. They are extremely gifted and majority are extremely hard working to try and master their craft.
As a rugby fan I would say they are different sports and therefore requirements for players arent the same. Rugby is more attritional for the whole team over 80+ minutes but they dont all play the whole game. Because like in NFL you dont want the really big guys (linebackers/forwards) to get too gassed out too early. So player rotation is important in both. Whereas NFL plays are more concentrated within specific time periods, as you say stop start and they have twice as many players involved on each side. Theres also all that padding and equipment they wear, playing for longer stints would be taxing.
ok i love that there are 3 springboks and one of them in the #1 position on this list but i don't get how Sabastien Chabal is not # 1
If you Lads want to see some Big Hits ,in Rugby Watch RUGBY LEAGUE , especially THE STATE OF ORIGIN GAMES ,IN AUSTRALIA ,ITS MENTAL
Every impact does have consequences. Even the biggest and heaviest can be worn down 😁
Jonah lomu has a ps1 rugby game
Jonah lomu the real baby faced assassin
Assassin forreal!
You need to watch Cheslin Kobe the best pound for pound rugby player in the world
Bakkies, what a boytjie :D
Dallas Cowboys tried to recruit Jonah Lomu…Jonah turned them down
looking Posolol Tuilagi , the nephew who play for France , 19 years , 1m92 150KG junior world champion
Look for the ultimate enforcer, that will be about Bakkies Botha
React to Tremz ft Mazza L20 - Sticks up 🔥🔥 heavy Scouse link up and it’s #30 trending uk right now
Football has Pele rugby has jonah lomu that is how great that man was
And something else. Jonah Lomu would have been my opposite number. Which means Id have had to mark him on the field. I was 5'10 and 70 Kg - He was like 6'6 200 Kg and did a 4.8 40M... He was incredible
Or a 11 second 100m time
React to South African school boy rugby and Cheslin Kobe for skills
You Guts should check out Pierre Spies
SÉBASTIEN CHABAL reste la légende absolue du rugby français, une icône nationale, bien au-delà de son sport, mais il n'est pas le seul, d'autres ont inscrit leur nom dans la légende, Jean Claude Killy, Jeannie Longo, Sébastien Loeb, Teddy Riner et Raymond Poulidor , et Antoine Dupont actuellement. 😊
i heard you say skills checxk out colbe
RIP Jonah!
Notice the surnames. A few the same family. The Tuilagi's. That mum/grandmother that raised them must just only feed them yams and raw meat
If u came off the pitch unhurt or not bleeding u weren’t involved
Where's Martin johnson🤔🤔
For real tho, you can’t tell me that you can’t put pads on some of these guys, give them a good run up and a handoff and they ain’t getting those 4 yards. They are gunna weigh more and feel less impact. They will literally fall with people for 4 every time. Unless they UBER load the box and then the play action is just free
I definitely think some of them could! But it is a lot harder than it looks. It’s not just running up the middle, it’s reading the blocks, keeping your feet underneath you and the guys that are trying to stop you are 350+ lb guys that should not be as quick and athletic as they are. Don’t forget you also have Linebackers that are running in to your only gap at full speed from 5 yards out. They are definitely guys that could and could learn it but it is a lot harder than some people expect. Especially at the professional level.
This is all Union players
thats was all rugby union
So most of this is old rugby. Some very illegal tackles that cost yellow and even reds today's dumb down rules. But most of the spear tackles are legit. And the head-butt there in the end from Bakkies, is because the All Blacks player held him back (called obstruction), and why Bakkies retaliated with a head-butt.
So you feel head butting is justified? It’s clear Botha not man enough to walk away. He is a pure thug
