      If I recall correctly, he asked for 80Kg dumbells at the Bok camp in the 2015 RWC. Obviously he’s not curling that on one arm, but that’s an impressive dumbell bench.

      During the 2012 pre-season at Western Province, Etzebeth found the 65kg (143lb) dumbbells “unsatisfactory” so he strapped extra 5kg (11lb) weights to them. In the end, the club had to custom-order 75kg (165lb) dumbbells for him. By way of context, Kyle Eastmond, the England centre, weighs 83kg (183lb). intheloose.com/

    Henry Tuilagi is the strongest rugby player ever.

      there is a little hyperbole to that story, that he did that in the gym in response to being told Andrew Sheridan was bench pressing 250kg. probably if measuring an assortment of quantifiable strength measures such as bench presses & dead lifts, it would be between the 2 of them.
      However if the 'strongest' means making yardage from a standing start with 3 defending players trying to pull them down you might look at Basteruaud or Billy Vunipola. If you want explosive acceleration into dominating huge collisions Manu Tuilagi was hard to beat in his pre0injury days. Naiyaravoro and Nadolo are perhaps hardest to stop when they have momentum.

    For the comments on Fijians are only good at running but can't score. Fact is, in the last decade Fijians have topped the try scoring in almost every major league. Some years topping every single major league. If you search 'top try scorer' for any league in the last ten years you'll see a few Fijians in there. So you must be blinking hard every time a Fijian scores a try.

    Josua Tuisova and Taniela Tupou are perhaps two of the most devastating runners in the modern game; definitely top 5 if not the very best imo. However, I don't know how they'd stack up against a prime Henry Tuilagi. Both attack and defence. Skills aside (he wasn't the silkiest of blokes lol), I've yet to see a player as dominant in terms of brute strength and raw power like Henry. Some of the names I see on here, players from that same era who were damn strong in their own right like Chabal and James Haskell, had some mighty and difficult battles with HT. Look up some of his highlights, there's one with Chabal getting driven backwards.

      Couple this with greater fitness and strength and defensive tactics it would be much harder in today’s game for Lomu to make as much progress. Especially when backs are almost as big as forwards
      Lomu would be a good player but he’d usually be shut down very quickly much like Manu Tualagi or Virimi Vakatawa. Which are people that if you don’t watch them they are away but usually just get stopped immediately

      As much as I respect him, I’ll have to disagree. He was just like a man from future, if he was playing with the players from today he wouldn’t be doing what he did back then. He just kind of pathed the way for big wingers. Even forwards are in the gym now, where as back in the day they was just fat and lazy.

    Power is more important in Rugby. Strength is also much harder to verify. It may be easier to think of it like this..." Who would be the person on the rugby field you would really rather not have to tackle if it's just you?" Then it's a bit easier to come up with your short list. Or better still rename the title, who is the scariest rugby player?
