[QUOTE="Steve-o, post: 209521"] I don't ever remember not having a rugby ball. But only started watching on and off when I was around 5 when I won R15 for getting the closest score against my dad and brother of a Natal vs Transvaal game (my dad chipped in for our bets :P ). Starting playing rugby at age 6 at a very proud and strong rugby school in the Zululand area, became the u/11 A team captain playing openside flanker that won the local league (still proud about that one! :D ) but broke my collar bone and missed the tour to Cape Town, next year got selected for the u/13A at right wing played like **** and told the coach I wanna play flank, he said I'm too small. So I quit and joined the u/12A, became captain playing at flank and we went unbeaten the whole season. That's when I really started taking to rugby, although me and bro played rugby against each other every day since I was 6 in the backyard (it always ended in with a few punches thrown :lol: ). Cricket was banned at home because we kept braking windows. I suck at cricket BTW [/QUOTE]
