@mn5 yeah as big of a dick as Haskell is, he's probably stepped in the ring with some chaps most of us would run a 10 sec 100m from.
Definitely. He’s also genuinely funny in between the dickhead moments too…..and as that clip showed he squared up to Marler face to face, no cheap shots.

There is a former Reds and Australian hooker, not been mentioned yet who surely deserves this designation.
Foley?
One of the better nicknames, “Axel”…..definitely a bit high brow for Crusaders fans to figure out though.

As funny as a 2 vodka bottle hangover
Possibly…..but definitely funnier than someone with special needs pushing buttons on stage

Difficult to tell who is a genuine hard man in the modern era. Far too much pushing and shoving, not enough Kevin Skinners.

Back in the mists of time Grant Batty was an angry little man. Would run halfway across the field to get involved in a bit of biff. Even though he would have need a step ladder in order to connect. Definitely compensating..
Met David Duckham at a sport dinner/event a few years back and he mentioned Batty as one of the hardest, toughest players he'd come up against.

Danny Grewcock - Dirty bastard who really couldn't hack it when the opposition hard men politely questioned his actions.
Richard Loe. Always struck me as bloke who preferred sneaky foul play to actually being hard.
Dallaglio deserves a special mention for kneeing Jonah in the face at RWC 1999. Showed an unusual turn of speed when Jonah got up and went after him.
