[QUOTE="Ids1978, post: 1036134, member: 83726"] If you are going to play prop you need to train for the scrum. To be a good scrumager you need to be confident have good technique and being strong helps. Then there is lifting in the lineouts. You will need timing, good technique again and upper body strength. Your backrow experience will be a bonus to playing prop. One other thing loose or tight head prop? I played both and they are too different technique. I started of as loose head then moved over to tighthead because no one wanted to play tight head. I think a lot of people find loose head easier so maybe try that. [/QUOTE]
