Battered and bruised.....
19. Jan 2011 at 18:27

....first time playing prop at rugby union. I used to play flanker or prop in rugby league but today was my first time propping in union after being called up at short notice due to a lack of numbers....

...feck I hurt, especially my upper back. My opposite number was a massive cruel barsteward too. Twice he managed to lift me off the ground with nothing but his head and I am 18 stone! Shocked

Out of a dozen scrums I only manged to hold him off 3 times Embarrassed

Well I guess I need to alter my gym regime for the next match Grin

Oh and we won Thumbs Up!

No that's what they told me too, but with the pac we had and size of players, second row for me. But it was a pub side.

Didn't do my back any good at all, but a great laugh though. When's the next game, time to recover?

Tighthead or Loosehead?

I've only Propped to fill in in an uncontested scrum

I'm currently 2nd row (only 6 1) and generally do the lifting of my next door neighbour (tall but not heavy).

Much prefered No 8 when I last played 26 years ago!

As it was my first time on the front row I went tighthead, I have been played at 2nd row before but I hate it with a passion. Despite the pain I prefer Prop Grin
