In this week's Top Five we look at the rugby players who looked far older than they actually are!

1. Dan Cole

When the tighthead went to the 2011 World Cup he was only 23-year-old, but due to his receding hairline looked like a mid-30s handyman who you might see on an episode of rogue traders. Poor guy.

2. Billy Vunipola

Here is the England back-rower aged 9 with his u11 team-mate. Baffling.

3. Mike Tindall

Can you believe that the centre was only 25 when England won the 2003 World Cup? With his shaved head and splattered nose, he could easily have been one of the 40-year-old hard men from down the local social club.

4. Francois Pienaar

We've all see the photos and video clips, but can you believe the South Africa captain was actually only 28 when he lifted the Rugby World Cup in 1995. He easily looks mid 30s.

5. Mako Vunipola

Would you believe me if I said that Mako Vunipola is two years younger than Courtney Lawes? Even his Saracens teammate, Brad Barritt has joked about the England props age last year, stating, “He looks old, I think he’s old. He is 29 but I don’t know if it is true.”
