Rugby Player's Penis Partially Torn Off During Gruesome Tackle (GRAPHIC PHOTO)

"S--t, where's the doctor?"

And he still refuses to play with a cup!

Haydn Peacock spoke out recently about suffering a torn penis during a rugby match . The injury required 11 stitches, the Telegraph reported.

Peacock, 23, who plays for French team AS Carcassonne, posted a dramatic photo of his being pulled down by his privates as he screams in agony during a February match against St Esteve Catalans Dragons.

But the real shocker came in the locker room.

"The pain was all right and then at halftime I was like, I’ve got to have a look ," he told the French Footy blog in an item posted March 11. "I checked on it and the skin is half ripped off and I was like, ‘Shit, where’s the doctor? Where’s the doctor?’ "

The doctor sent him to a clinic that night to be treated. Peacock showed his teammates the damage to laughs all around and said he had to "strap it up" for the next game.

"#rugbyleague is definitely not a sport I recommend ," he wrote in an Instagram post featuring the photo. "11 stitches later for the little fella but she'll be right."

Despite the close call, Peacock still refuses to play with a protective cup, telling French Footy it impedes his ability to run .
