Fullback: most complete player, last line of defence, first to making break in attack, safest hands on team.

They are responsible for catching the opposition's high & testing kicks in attack.

Hookers makes more contact with the ball than any other player.

They act as dummy half after a play the ball, swinging passes out or breaking down the opposition's defence.

Centres are in the thick of things in both attack & defence.

They create space for wingers & make that last-ditch tackle.

They have great footwork & are fast running up & down the pitch.

Stand-offs/five-eighths make important decisions in attacks.

They have excellent passing & kicking skills; place kick, drop kick, punt, they make every kick count.

A Winger needs the speed of a sprinter & hands like glue.

But the winger is not only prominent in the attack. He/she can often be the last line of defence, making important tackles.

Props bash their way through tackles & make big ones themselves when they count.

They have excellent ball handling skills & a good rugby league brain.

They are the first line in the scrum.

The Loose Forward/Lock is always right in the action.

He/she is tough on defence & very fit, as the position requires much running. He/she also has excellent handling skills.

The Halfback/Scrum Half is the link between the forwards & backs.

He/she is a very capable ball handler, a quick decision maker & has a great mind for the game.

Second Row is more than making tackles & breaking down the opposition's defence.

It’s also a great pair of hands & quick legs & an important part of the scrum.

Below shows us trying to kick & take a tackle. It’s pretty funny.
