Neither Lewis Ludlow nor Lewis Ludlam were impressed with this almighty blunder from The Times today.

LIST: Seven rugby misprints that are unintentionally hilarious

Here at RUCK, we know the embarrassment a typo spotted by our eagle-eyed readers can cause. However, nobody is exempt, so the best thing we can do is look back and laugh.

1. Ben Curry

An article from Sale Sharks in the Telegraph with a great action shot of 'Ben Curry' in the bottom right. They could have just used the same image of Tom twice and they would have been closer.

2. Petrus du Plessis

This one from 2016 does make us laugh. Would have been well deserved if he wasn't from South Africa.

3. Mike Tindall a murderer?

6. Even Sky Sports get it wrong. Can you spot it?

It’s good that Sam Warburton can laugh about this unfortunately placed headline!

7. Sam Warburton involved again...

Either the editor had a sick sense of humour … or someone didn’t check the pages before they went to print back in 2012.
