[QUOTE="jonny24, post: 703777, member: 62880"] Definitely not against the rules. Nowhere does it say a hooker has to throw in, or a fly half kick, or a lock jump. It's all just convention. I used to do it, when I switched to senior men's after high school. I'd play wing, because we were short guys and it was easier to slot in there. But I'd still jump in the lineouts, because I knew what I was doing, and I was really light still so they could lift me way up. They used to love lifting me... then I went to college and gained too much. I guess the only downside to your situation is that possibly other players are missing out on developing skills in those positions since he's covering so many bases? [/QUOTE]
