Need more infor about your build/body shape and ability eg are ypu quick with a side step or what, to determine where you'd play, but yeh do it, im 173 and 80kg.
Your local club will sort you out and make you part of the team on and off the field, great sport. Best of luck
I a medium build used to be a huge build was over 150 pound now currently 108 I am a ok as a runner but not as quick as others (Guess that will come soon) I think I am best in scrummige as o think I got good strength in me
Let me start by saying rugby is always a good idea!
I'd echo what the others have said to be honest. It's a sport that can be played by all sizes at amateur level, but based upon you size and weight, you'll have plenty of options open to you.
Most clubs will welcome beginners and should have a great social side too.
