To be an NRL player has to be one of if not the most demanding physically challenging professions in the world. Respect to all those tough bastards young and old.

I thought he would pick Toovey. I recall Toovey handling Mal more often than not and he drove him back in an Origin once. Ray Price? Tough, yeah. But I reckon he put on some of the "help me stand up trainer" stuff. I think he leant into the mystique of Ray Price: Tough as Old Boots

Geoff Toovey is my all time favourite Sea Eagle player. When he actually coached Manly side at one point, it allowed me to put aside by bitterness towards Sea Eagles because of failed merger between Bears. I actually thought it was during his era of coaching that allowed me a Bears supporter to move on and forgive Sea Eagles for that period.

Mark Graham toughest ever

Martin Offiah, in a time of thuggery when every opposition player wants to smash your face in and did. He used to get battered.

He's still screaming in the sheds

Pffft !!! WGAF the post & all reply’s on this thread are related to Rugby League & 1 of the best ever to play the game’s opinion on the toughest ‘Rugby League’ players not soccer nor ur “unqualified” opinion on what’s the greater sport ya flog

Definitely Geoff Toovey mate

Tom Raudonikis should be right up there, small In stature, never ever took a backwards step even against the big guys, played In the no nonsense era, and people actually forget what a great footballer he was as well, held the aussie 7 junper for 10 years

I winced just thinking about a season of getting injections in the groin. That is next level toughness.

Mark Graham

Everyone is forgetting Kevin “ Kandos”. Ryan.

Paul Vautin would have nominated himself

Les Davidson and John O’Neil. O’Neil in a test against England had a cut on his shin bone that exposed the bone and kept playing. Bob Mcarthy couldn’t look at it

Gordon Tallis and Les Boyd were tough nuts.

A decade ago, there was very little thought to player safety. Before that, If a player could stand, he continued. That's just how it was

Jason Croker played a second half with a ruptured ACL in one leg and torn ankle ligaments in the other.

@M Cool story, I got another. Soccer will never take off in Australia. Only foreigners watch the sport, and the A League is among the least popular of sport leagues. Australian rugby eclipses Soccer, in which soccer is left in the shadow of the actual tough players, not the European hicks who dive every time they are touched. Your comments aren’t changing anyone’s opinion about Rugby League, rather helping us understand why British Citizens are no tooth, tea drinking, can’t pronounce the “T” hicks.

David "the mule" Hosking,he was a prop forward playing for manly under Graham lowe in the early 1990's. He broke his hand in a match,told the trainer to strap it up & he went back out & finished playing the game. That's tough those guys back in the day....the players today,I'm not so sure🤔🤔 🙍‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Dane and Kurt Sorenson early years at the sharks every Aussie from the opposing packs and even big centers would try and smash the out of the game 🎯 they were targets for sure but few if any one ever got them taken off the field often it was big KURT that would destroy backs and forwards often not legal tackles either he was often the culprit of taking players out when they didn't have the ball 🏈 lol 😂 you would see opposing players flattened and big KURT looking bemused when the ref called him over to explain himself
