I am what you would call "fair to middling big", played front row forward for the school first XV, and people tend to leave me alone. That said, I have rarely seen (except for street robbery/mugging) a totally unprovoked attack on a person unknown to the attacker. Usually there is a background to such attacks, even if it only took place a few hours previously.
