Dear God this looks painful.

Australia's National Rugby Championship is their version of the AIL and a recent match in the competition between NSW Country Eagles and Sydney Stars produced one of the hardest open-field hits you'll ever see. As Sydney Stars went looking for a late winner, a break by one of their wings is stopped in brutal fashion by the Eagles full-back. That'll leave a mark... Hat-tip to Reddit/Rugbyunion for the GIF
