Good lawd! I cringed when I saw this picture of Rugby player Ernst Joubert’s nose!! I’ve never seen anything like it. And we thought football was a tough sport. Yuck and ouch! Check out the pic after the jump…

Via Metro:
South Africa rugby international Joubert had his nose smashed to bits as Sarries beat Ulster at Twickenham to reach the semi-finals of of the Heineken Cup.
Rugby union is known as a harsh, brutal sport but this is an injury which makes even team-mates of the Sarries vice-captain wince.
Joubert’s nose appears to have broken in two and shifted halfway across one of his cheekbones but he was still able to grin about it in this picture – later put on Twitter by BBC journalist Dan Roan.
He now faces the prospect of surgery to repair the damage.
