[QUOTE="stormer2010, post: 293712"] I would agree with the above post. Trying to bulk up at 14 will cost you and only result in the opposite in the long run. Size also isn't everything in rugby. In fact, most of the best players IMO are quite small compared to the bigger guys in their position: Richie McCaw, Brian O'Driscoll, Shane Williams believe me I can name plenty more. I used to play at wing and was quite big for a wing and I can assure you that I hated playing against smaller guys more than the big blokes. Sure, you feel it playing against the big guys but the small guys make you look like and idiot by ducking, sidestepping etc. Anyway, I play lock now (my wife is a good cook) so don't need to worry about that too much *yay* any more. What position do you play? [/QUOTE]
