2009 KOTH: David Williams

Australia rugby league player David “Wolfman” Williams is the 2009 King of the Hardwood winner, besting 63 other athletes in the NCAA tournament-like contest. Williams was declared the winner when contest organizer Layne (Mariner Duck Guy on our Discussion Board) threw out the votes for fellow finalist Brad Ausmus for suspected vote stuffing. Yes, someone [...]

Hot jocks: Rugby trio

Thanks to Sportinlife for the tip on this video montage of French rugby players Clément Poitrenaud, Frédéric Michalak and Vincent Clerc. It looks like a lot of images are from the Dieux de Stade calendars. It was posted a while back, but my guess is that most people haven’t seen it.

Bootylicious rugby, Southern style

In covering the gay sports leagues in Atlanta, some days are more boottie-licious than others. Mix some rugby jocks with white shorts, a little rain and a lot of mud and, well, you’ve got a recipe for a fun afternoon. That’s what happened last Saturday when the Atlanta Bucks Rugby Football Club took on [...]

Eastwood, Damon tackle rugby

There are few filmmakers I love more than Clint Eastwood. So I was excited to see some shots from his next film, The Human Factor, about South Africa’s run to the Rugby World Cup in 1995 that helped bring some unity to the country post-apartheid. The movie stars Matt Damon who, as you can see, [...]

Aussie Rugby League hot jocks

We have written before about the “Gods of Football” charity calendar and “making of” DVD that features Aussie Rules Football and Rugby League players getting naked for a good cause.

NFL’s Dhani Jones tackles other sports

Dhani Jones is often referred to in the media as a Renaissance man, in part because of his love of bow ties, which he turned into a business venture. The biggest impression he made on the field as an Eagles linebacker from 2004-2006 was with his “air guitar” celebration every time he made a play. [...]

Openly gay cheerleader in Aussie rugby

Meet Aaron Neich, 19, openly gay and the first male cheerleader for the Penrith Panthers rugby team. He was selected at an audition this weekend. One Aussie tab has already dubbed him the “Pink Panther.” He is out, proud and doesn’t care what anyone thinks.

Ruggers strip to show their inner gears

Yet still another in a growing line of rugby players to strip down for the cameras, some of the Six Nations stars have taken it all off for a Powerade promotional campaign that is supposed to stress the “inner gear” that athletes need to excel. Funny that they’d decide to almost show the outer gears [...]

He is a young 22 years old and plays for the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles in the National Rugby League of Australia. He got the nicknames for growing long locks and a shaggy beard, but he’s since [...]

Fresh from the ‘Gods of Football,’ Australian Rugby’s Nick Youngquest gets in front of the camera with little but his briefs on for the French Tetu magazine. Surprisingly, they had a video camera there to tape the whole thing.
