The Q everyone is asking: if NH and SH posters were to face each other in a rugby game...

[Saintjay]

6 or 7. None of this specialist open side b@llockz for me. Multi-skilled like a spork.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Spoken like a true 6.

 

[Horacito]

Fat boi #1

 

[Becca]

As I'm female, I'll take on the role of screaming from the side-lines " medic "

 

[Which Tyler]

Touch, beach and walking rugby are all mixed...

4. Wouldn't cut it height wise at uni SA standards though so potentially 8. Depends what we consider our standard…

 

[Herman the German]

Good old German amateur league rugby, ending up playing whatever is needed. And if you're the fastest of a bunch of props, you end up on the wing. Moved from second row to lock to centre and from time to time vice versa. Best place probably on the bench (hope not in a 7-1 split).

 

[ncurd]

Having never played I'm a bench player at best. I'm a massively out fitness middle distance runner. So best to stick me in the bench as wing cover and pray you don't call on me.

I can catch the ball, run and pass. Can't kick so would never make the England team (or I dunno makes me a shoe in).

Think it's safe to say that our standard may be just short of uni SA level.

Sold. 8 it is.

I have this feeling @TRF_stormer2010 is a back, most likely a fb/wing.
I understand we've got a lot of spots to cover but once we find an Aussie with facial hair and a temper at #9, the rest is all downhill. Random south africans for what we missing in the pack and kiwis in the backs and we're set. @Derpus, you're up.

Trust me being able to run or pass isn't a requirement for my thirds or vets team. Owning a half time hip flask is the main requirement.

There was talk many years ago of trying to get a TRF 7's team for a compeition

Would be a nice way to get Olyy out of the house for once

We even got down to the kit design stage, but couldn't find a tournament with a decent having-a-laugh tier,

I did play against a couple of (now ex-)members at a 7s tournament in Wales a while back, good laugh

Would be a nice way to get Olyy out of the house for once

Why would I want to do that?

I do have facial hair and a temper but might not be the best option at scrum half given im 6 1

Van der Westhuizen was over 6ft

Van der Westhuizen was over 6ft

And Ruan Pienaar is 6ft2

Irrelevant. In any case, Joost was taller than that.
As long as the do is appropriate and the attitude is not lacking the rest will fall in place naturally. #9 for you it is.
