You'd be extremely to attempt a punch in a game of Rugby. Firstly if the referee sees, which he most probably will, you'll be red carded and off the field in seconds. Secondly you have to remember that the one person you punched is going to have 14 other team-mates to back him up, most of which will not hesitate to bundle in and help out their mate.

No. Deliberate kicking of an opponent is seen as dangerous play and is rewarded by a red card and 3 week suspension. You may however, use the heel of the boot to drag a player out of the way in the ruck. Any player found stamping on a players joints is again red carded.
