  1. Jonah Lomu

    A giant of the rugby union game quite literally as he weighed in at a staggering 18st 13lb (120kg). The New Zealand winger was like a battering ram to opponents, the smaller guys - still quite some size themselves but tiny in comparison - just bouncing off him. A kidney-related disease halted his career before transplant surgery allowed him to make a comeback. Lomu never won the World Cup but with a record 15 tries in Rugby World Cups, for me he deservedly takes top spot.

    Brian O'Driscoll

    Warrior genius. Scores hatfuls of tries in a very limited team. If he'd been an All Black he'd have surely scored over a hundred. I'm a kiwi living in Ireland and have never seen anyone targeted by opposing teams in the way he has been. Defensively amazing and an incredible appetite for hard work too. The complete package.
