What position scores the least tries ?...

[Big Ewis]

can't get an answer from google...statistically, which position in test Rugby Union do you think scores the least tries, statistically ?
If espnscrum could give an answer to that, or if you've got some source...

I'd guess the locks. I know most people would vote for props but, eh, locks for me.

P.S.: please don't answer "missionary" or "doggy style" or anything like that :cryy:

I'd say locks.
Props often crash over from a metre or two out, or are on the back of a maul, but Locks are usually the ones clearing out the ruck, or stuck in the heart of the maul, so miss out of the plaudits.

Locks followed by front row and out half I'd say.

yes my humble small little child, I remember seeing this table before...and it mmm..it doesn't help at all. But thank you for trying, and failing...miserably. Yes, really quite...miserably....
*siiiiiiiiiiiighhhhhhhhhhh....................*
But thank you for trying though. Please step away from my vision.

yeah I'd think locks, then probably the loosehead, then tighthead, then the hookers...then ?...mmmmmm...OS flanker ?

Who scores more: no.8's or scrumhalves ?...gotta be 8's.

Yeah, I have no idea what I was thinking. In my defense I hadn't had breakfast yet.

What's your non old Chinese man's voice? I have wondered since you're French but grew up in the Middle East?

I'd agree yeah second rows would score the least tries. They usually are caught in the middle of the discrete and gritty stuff. Then props then 1st five then hooker then loose forwards then halfback then midfield then the outside backs. AND THHEEEEEN?

mmmmm, good enough for me. You're absolved from this terrible, terrible impertinence...for now.

Locks are interestingly the ones that make the least ground I'd say too ball in hand. Apparently being really tall, high center of gravity, doesn't matter that you're 125kg, having a "long" body is apparently the worst for ball-in-hand carries...they always get tackled and fall to the ground in a blink.
you know what, locks just SUCK as a whole !!!! YEAH !!!....

And theeeeeeeeen, I'd say the coach ?....gah, that's not even nearly funny...

About my accent: yes, lived here almost my whole life and as I've said once before I have an American-type accent. Not mixed with french intonations, just, almost 100% American, which I'm conscious is ridiculous. I have to constantly explain to ppl I really am French each time...just how it is.
I say almost 100%, because some words like "international" I pronounce with a hard "T", 'inTer', I don't say like Americans "innernational". But a very very neutral American accent obviously...like, I'll say 'and' not 'eeand' for the word "and".

Funny thing is my brother was like me for years until he moved to Ireland, which he's in love with, and he hasn't resisted the influence too much. He's actually got very Irish intonations every once in a while, especially when he doesn't watch himself :lol:
