The Aussies at their favorite sport cathcing ball.
This time it's Eddy Pettybourne of the Rabbitohs being attacked from behind. Damn those compression shorts!

Jonny Wilkinson and Matthew Tait, two blondes who seem to have quit a lot of fun for supposedly drab Brits

High Ten-ing


Bottled water ruggers


"Do me pits smell Matty?"


"Righto, I'll take this one Jonny chum."


Nothing bonds like a good ole gang-tackle

You have a great eye . . . and great taste! Thanks for the pics.

Oh rubbish, chaps, I do believe we've missed our tea.

Players compete in a nude rugby game at Logan Park on June 13, 2009 in Dunedin, New Zealand.
A naked rugby match is a traditional prelude to a New Zealand All Blacks Test match in Dunedin against a visiting team.

A photo gallery of the event includes naturally a fully clothed streaker interrupting the game, but a naked policeman brings the situation fast and efficiently under control.

So, um, how long is the flight from Chicago to New Zealand? Can I apply for the job of body painting the players? Wow. And I thought the naked bike ride in Chicago the other night was an event!

Thanks to an American lad in Ireland, I came across this picture of Rory Lamont, younger brother of Sean, about to plant one on his teammate, John Barclay. Both play for the Glasgow Warriors of the Rugby League.
I love you, Big Guy!

And here's David Williams, KOTH, planting one on his teammate, Anthony Watmough:


Not only do Ruggers get naked, they kiss each other, too!

And they say the difference between a straight guy and a gay guy is a six-pack.

Looks like they only needed one each for the two of them...and I don't think THOSE bottles are empty!

Stretch !

Pin the man down and see to him

Tom Williams of the appropriately named Harlequins goes down with a serious injury to his fake blood capsule

Please Tom, tell me it's that chunky thigh that needs attention


Had some pretty nasty tomahto sauce on that pizza last night did ya?


What a bloody f#@kin' mess

A new position to try out. Although it might require some practice before you can enjoy it as much as these guys do...

Thanks, Aaron for those All Blacks, Richie McCaw and Dan Carter. They'll be doing the Haka soon enough!

But I love my Irish ruggers. Take my word for it, there's nothing like an Irishman!

Yesterday, the Irish beat South Africa, 15-10!

And Rob Kearney was the player to beat!

I would love to Revive with him!

Surf Boat Duel between the Blues and the Warriors at the Viaduct Harbour on December 15, 2009 in Auckland, New Zealand

^^^^^ Great pics ^^^^^ !!!!

Four eye-catchers from the Wales National Rugby team

Fly half Dan Biggars

Fly me to the moon with that smile


Can I catch your balls?


Or you could catch mine.


Lock Luck Charteris

You trying to scare me?


With that gangster's crooked nose?


Or does that bulge mean your happy to see me?


Full back/wing Leigh Halfpenny

His Levi Johnston from Alaska look


Levi can only wish he looked this cute


Or was built this well


Lock Alun Wyn Jones

Wet and wild


Serious about climate change (with captain Ryan Jones)


I think he's actually heating up the planet

PLAYING A CLEAN GAME

Boys Will be Boys

Aled Thomas - One WALE(s) of a hot rugger:

Who cares about the ball when you can grab this

Aled does a little grabbing himself - behind an Argentine

Bet he scores a lot

Well, maybe not every time

But that's no reason to stop trying

Gareth Thomas comes out.............of most of his clothes

With scorpions and attitude


Dark of knight

Someone's in for payback


Looking ginger in L'Equipe magazine


In patriotic pink

Hmm, some homophobes have condemned him as a "wicked" role model:says Stephen Green, director of Christian Voice.

They are absolutely right. Well it is wicked to model with your pants on for L'Equipe photos.

This is not what it looks like. One of the players in a recent rugby match between New Zealand's Wellington Hurricanes and Australia's Western Force did not forget to put on his shorts and shoes.



It was a streaker who eventually got caught, as they all do, sooner or later - not that he seems to mind, on the contrary...

Kiwi Stephen Brett of the Cardiff Crusaders who recently left the Auckland Blues and former teammate Dan Carter (or "The Master" as Brett calls him) will soon be facing Carter's Blues for the first time since.

Brett gets prepped


Looks carnivorous


Gets groped celebrating


The fella who looks to be giving him a quick wank in the last pic is fellow Crusader Casey Laulala.

I'm gonna get that ball!



Mat Turner of England is determined to get what he needs from Kimami Siauti of Australia.

Sean takes the ball

Scotland v England 2010

Neat photos edinburghkiltie.

I suppose I'm old fashion in preferring realism in photography as well as other art forms, so I was pissed that Mathew Tait is a mere black-and-white apparition in the background of the lower right pic. It hides that beatiful smile, shaggy blonde mane and powder blue eyes that he and brother Alex share.



Mathew exciting the fans


Even with his hair grown out Alex is still second to big bro'

And this northerner rocks in black. And would you believe that there is yet another Tait stud, Finlay, coming up in the rugby ranks? Mathew, who is pursuing a biomedical degree also fills non-rugby time with French classes, cookery and yoga: Tait role model.

Billy Slater of the Melbourne Storm. Sure wish American professional football players or baseball players trained in Speedos!!


He's pretty cheeky!!

Cal's Bears so dominate NCAA rugby sevens that their games would be boring if not for...

Hunky captain Colin Hawley (being hugged in the center)


Even his little pics make him look big


Soussed and looking for hookers in Vegas with a friend?


Love to tackle that


Keegan Englebrecht would have trouble fitting his name on an NFL jersey


And it's hard to know which position he'd play


But definitely know the position I'd like to put Mike Petri (being hugged) into

Thanks for those sportinlife...gonna have to go across the bay next year to watch them play.

If you're lucky they might be playing the teams of some of these players - hot ruggers who are NOT Bears (try to ignore the watermarks):

Josh Holland of OSU could probably start at running back for the Ohio State football team

It's a lucky man who is chased by Navy's Tom Magnuson (on the right)

Looks like all hands are on dieck when Arizona U's Brett Thompson cruises by; including Arizona State's Rashad Sleem

Utah's Max Moala has all he can handle with Josh

Something about Dartmouth's Paul Jarvis that hits my target on the bullseye

Dave Geib represents well for those Army boys

AU's Sergey Pitman learns the hard way that Army boys don't forget a tackle

Tennesssee's Mason Howard and Indiana's AJ Hollingsworth in the sexiest tangle-up

This photo doesn't do justice to Bowling Greens Nick Brandenstein and Rocco Mauer, who are extending an unappreciated welcome to Penn State's Joanel Joseph

A somewhat better view of Rocco

Thanks again!

No worries mate.

Well the Bears were run over by a Samoan Three Ton Palamo (actually Thretton Palamo, but my little variant gives a better sense of the man) pulled across the finish line by a little caboose called Don Pati - ending the Cal Dynasty in college rugby sevens.

Still, I couldn't help admiring the qualities of yet another Bear, many of whom seem to have been yanked right off their surfboards riding a wave that started in...well, Samoa.

Latest hunk, Blaine Scully, would look as good on a Hollywood set or an Australian Rules Football pitch.

An opponent seems awestruck

I have added more pics to my Edinburgh Accies v Hawick Gallery if you wish to view

So what has Gareth Thomas been up to?

Still playing with that football


Following a another hot Crusader on to the pitch


Tackling high while a teammate takes the low route


Getting dirty for the Cardiff Blues his former team


That tat should attract a boyfriend


Til then he's got all the love he can handle from his mates on the pitch


Elsewhere

Blues Chris Czeckaj gets away with a try after possibly stepping out


Sean Lamont with his clothes on, still hot


Another Shaun, Lunt, scores a try even with a face in his left pit


This tackle prevented him from getting another


Warrington players celebrate a try


Then went on to win the Carnegie Challenge Cup


Back to Shaun, in an unrelated salacious pic, he seems to have other reasons to be happy

One of the hottest guys in Rugby League is Kirk Yeaman, who plays for Hull.

Here's an iconic one of him:


And more recent ones from a few months ago, where he is sandwiched between Harlequins Luke Gale and Kevin Penny. Lucky Guys!!:

One of the best photos I've seen in sports.

I wonder if Stephanie Rice was inspired by this...



Aussies wear the yellow shirts (and do their best wearing the green shorts)

English rugger Dan Scarbrough onthe right in a photo from Towelroad


Can a bear be blond and fast?


Especially a polar bear.


Only if he sheds the phony blond highlights.


Wing/Fullback is about as aerobic as Union gets.


Real bears can wear pink, or anything they want.

An Aussie rugger team plays an intramural game of shirts and skins

I'd like to be part of this inspection team!! Or are they being punished?

In the Nov 2010 issue of Rugby World Ireland there is a drool worthy picture of New Zeland celebrating in their club house ( some one should post it)
