I started out at wing due to my speed but ended up playing 12.
6ft and 15st (1mtr 83 -- 95Kg). Not the best ball player but a good runner of lines

I play 9 or 11/14. Or if better players are in those positions 12,13,15.

Actually on second thoughts never ever 15 again. I don't know how you fullbacks do it!

5'9 and 12.4 stone. Pretty good kick and pass, but I have a bad tendency to not pass the ball though...

I played Lock all the way through school (too tall for prop)
I played Blindside all the way through the Army (too fast for prop)
For last 15 years I've played Prop, either Tight or Loose but prefer Loose.

6ft Tall, 20 st.

I run like Brits, scrum like Leanoard and Look like Castro (all in my head of course).

To quote the great man.... "I float like a butterfly, and it stings when I go pee"

Wasn't he in 300? Didn't realise they played rugby in Sparta though.

Would've been a seriously mean rugby team!

I was told that i was my teams only Draw-back, can't seem to find that position on any other team sheets though...

Replaced in the main article title...

late to the party here as usual and would be no use in the second row being a short arse.

Started out at full back, then went to scrum half, and then to hooker at school due to a lack of players wanting to go there. Loved it in the front row but wasn't really heavy enough so then went and played openside. Sadly, have the build of a back, but the mindset of a forward. Tended to lead to a fair few injuries. Not played for years.

FullBack wrote:6ft, 14.5 stone, little bit of speed. injury prone

Are you Rory Lamont?

I'll take the number 5 spot if nobody wants it played there a few times, my true position is tighthead or loosehead prop.

Every team needs someone to wind up the opposition and that team looks a little weak on that front.

Metal Tiger wrote:Look like Castro

Fidel?

I am a former 14/13/12/10/15 and I even played hooker once but that hurts too much for one of the girls in the backs to cope with.

I volunteer to be the team medic (To be honest I am not actually a qualified doctor but I did try and stitch my brothers head up once after he cut it open on a night out........not totally successfully).

6/7 or 12/13 for me, or better still, gathering splinters in my erse on the bench

Random acts of Thuggery? In Rugby? Shocking.
I know a retired priest down the road who will grant absolution for your sins for a pint or two.

Since we are on 606 (v2) perhaps our Mods should be able to grant the holy dispensation needed to ensure you play with a soul as clean as a baby's bum. I choose Rugbydreamer. She seems a sincere and devout practitioner of the Rugby Religion.

Dream: Whither art thou? Please grant this poor sinner the absolution his soul craves so he can go back out and play and commit all acts appropriate to the Holy Game of Rugby and do it all again. I would hate to have to sacrifice a chicken on his behalf (messy).

(ex) Winger mostly....a bit like Shane Williams or Jason Robinson only better........quick feet and good tackler, despite being 4ft and 7st...can't kick or pass though

Played most positions in the backline at underage level- 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 even once or twice at 7. Too small to play in the centres (or backrow) unfortunately and should have made the move to Scrum half when I was young

My god youve got me packing down with HERSH! He is bound to givethe other side verbals. Their loosehead has got a short fuse so its going to lead to tears.

Does MetalTiger really want Hersh's hand appearing between his legs?

He may start ressembling Castrato rather than Castro.

Well after such a request, how can one refuse? Tis granted

I'll lead the team too if there isn't any takers.

I'm pretty good at getting the Refs onside.

Geordie, if selection still open, put me down for 6 / 7.
And can I nominate Grey Ghost for referee ?

Hersh for media handler and general international diplomacy

I like to think of myself as a very poor man´s Andrew Merthens but I´d like to think my tackling was a bit richer.

My goal kicking was alright but seeing as we have many backs I think we can keep the ball in hand rather than kick for territory.

OK I'm putting in a transfer request...maybe Toulon are recruiting.....

Delicately put, kia!

I used to play loosehead or tighthead at school before moving to hooker then eventually back to tighthead again. I was quite rubbish actually...

That said, I often followed the school team from the touchlines with a camera so I could be the official photographer if no-one needs me??

Are you allowed to follow school teams around with a camera?

Well if there's a spot for another 8 (can play 4,5,6,7 as well). 16 1/2 stone 6' in my socks,play with the style and skill of Parrisse, tackling and breakdown ability of Hill, but these days at 37 the speed of Easter

Before the game I'm going to make sure I've eaten a healthy diet of cabbage, sprouts and curry. Should make packing down with Hersh behind me more fun.

After 10 years of long flowing hair I finally got it cut off for my wedding a couple of months back so I probably do look more like Fidel Castro then Castrogiavanni

HERSH wrote:Are you allowed to follow school teams around with a camera?

Only when I was actually a pupil

Thats ok then, I was worried that you bounced the kids on your knee Mr Bounce!

Many moons ago I played mainly 14. Had cameos at 10/12/13. Never too quick but always game, with a good footballing brain. I used to lose concentration a lot if there was any talent on the sidelines.

Still do, I'm happy to say(Although I don't play anymore).

Metal Tiger I hope you have balls of steel!

As we nearly have three full teams can I please request that I line up against HERSH? I'll even play out of position if necessary.

Are you sure you're up to it Offload?

I can be pretty full on to play against (or with come to that)

Get in the queue, offload

I'm honoured guys.

3rd team: Dynamic back row of an Englishman, Scotsman, and an Aussie, with all the potential of a jolly good pub joke ( 3 men go into a pub etc). So dynamic I just hope I can keep up with But100 and Ozzy.
And Grey Ghost as ref... all those offsides.... can't wait.

gregor, we'll just put up camp over the gain line!

3rd XV sounds good to me, pints before, during and after game isn't it?

Yeah but you'v got to cut the dynamic 2nd team 8 down from the base of the scrum first!

Well if theres space in the 3rd team for a flanker/ wannbe centre then I'm in! And if there isnt space I will be there for the social after anyway!

I played left wing at school. It was great until everyone else started growing and I didn't!

So who is our coach?

can we get Martin Johnson ?

Driver, we're gonna tie his shoelaces together at the previous ruck when we were lying offside

Good call for Johnno, at least we won't get bollocked for getting on the lash
