[QUOTE="YKNGR, post: 152692"] I think your position will be good at flanker or no.8. Not much strength needed in the scrums and those are pretty much the same as backs. Charging into people: rucks, bowl them over and giving your team a turnover would give you a good name in the team. Helping in the rucks around the fringes would help out the fatties too. Maybe those weights in the Gym would help you lifting in the lineouts. big hard hits give you the most reputation, missing tackles would chuck that away. Surely being in the backs you would need to tackle a lot. Being in the fowards you tackle not too often but enough for the game. Giving the opponent a big hit every once and so often in your season will surely give you a good reputation. hitting up the ball in a penalty, i think you would have the upper body as you go to the gym and being fast would also help alot. Quick steps would pressure the opponents and would probably mark you as their main runner, if so then you should go into the rucks more often and every once so often going back into the backline and hitting them hard would be a great help for the backs. As a newcomer of rugby i suggest being in the fowards would give you more experience and when you think you are ready (and if you want to) you can go into the backline and make yourself Well this is just my recommendations from a U57kg secondary schoolboy, but i hope it helps [/QUOTE]
