What looks like a pretty solid routine that a mate of mine is on. It looks superb actually IMO.Friendship b/w women:
A woman doesn't come home one night. The next day she tells her husband she slept over at a girlfriend's place. Her husband calls 10 of her best friends. None know anything about it.
Friendship b/w men:
A man doesn't come home one night. The next day he tells his wife he slept over at a friend's place. His wife calls 10 of the husband's best friends. 8 of them confirm he slept over, the other 2 claim he's still there.

Well that is partly true...... but partly rubbish as well.
For front row you have to be 18 to play mens rugby and you can only play one year up untill u20's.
As for backs, you have to be 17 to play mens rugby officially if you are league registered but then if your not then you can get away with it.

Sorry mate i dont, i have managed to loose it and im pretty annoyed about it. From what i can remember the fitness side of it was pretty much the same... maybe a little more sprints to accomadte the gme situation. with the weights i think there were a few more olly lifts. Im not sure though. I will try and have a look on my old computer to see if i can find it. No promises though.

All three mate, LOL. Well when i was down at Bath i used to play all three. Now i am concentrating on Loose head and Hooker. My passion is hooker but i have been named one of the up and coming props in the league so im not sure what to do really. Only reason i went loose head and not hooker at my new team was becasue the captain is loose head and..... he is the mens county captain. So i dint really stand a chance.
Where do you play?

I have to agree with this. I played rugby for 2 years in high school (I'm taking a year off this season) and many players here simply do not understand good rugby. I think it's because in American football, it's about the PERSON moving WITH the ball. However, rugby is about the BALL moving. PERIOD. Americans think it's about size and strength because they think if they're big and strong, they'll move with the ball better. You shouldn't move WITH the ball. It's not about you. You should MOVE the ball. There's a fine distinction between the two, which many American players do not get. Rugby is all about the BALL not the PLAYERS.

Nah I go to a comprehensive that only really plays football... wish I could play for a school but private school is waaaay too expensive for me, and I'm also happy with friends and stuff so I don't want to go to a grammar school to play. Although in sixth form I might get the chance to play for the grammar that's on the same site as mine, although it's not as good as the one further away (which usually does pretty well in the Daily Mail cup... can't remember how far they got this year). I will still play if I can though obviously! I'm guessing you do play for school then?

I am probably the smallest on my team. I'm about 5'9'' and around 150. I'm solid defensively though for a fly half. I might get run over a lot, but i hang on for dear life and bring them down. I won't knock a forward back, but he will hit the deck. I have made a few rather sizeable hits though, normally on wingers trying an inside ball off of the 12!
It is strange though, for a small guy, i have a serious boot on me. On a straight spiral punt, i can go from inside our try area to the opposition 10 yard line, from hand i am comfortable anywhere under about 45 yards, and drop goals have some serious range!
