[QUOTE="ACTINUP, post: 795589, member: 73977"] If you've only been off a few years you should be fine. I took 8 years off and got back into rugby and played blindside where as previously I was a centre/fullback. Key thing for me is that I just had to start playing again to really get a feel for the position, the same may go for you. Things like positioning will come with game time, otherwise just concentrate on the basics of rugby. Tackle, pass, kick, ruck. Don't over think it. Just sign up, train, eat and sleep well and have fun. A similar position that may suit you could be the wing. In NZ anyway our back three tend to be able to do all roles. The likes of Ben Smith, Cory Jane, Nehe Milner Skudder are all handy on the wing or at the back. Maybe an alternate position to consider, especially that you mention you're quick too. [/QUOTE]
