why are football position names so boring yawn where’s your hooker 🙄🙄
#flyhalf scrumhalf prop lock flanker fullback ..#then you’ve got your open side/blindside distinction and loose head/tight head#can’t forget the number 8 which simply doesn’t have a position name#although they are a back row / loose forward 😭#bc we have tight forwards and loose forwards … normal behaviour that#also not to be confused with the back row is the back line which is a totally#different thing…#oh yeah also the halfbacks which is a name for the scrum half and flyhalf#other positions are normal names though like inside centre outside centre and left wing and right wing#oh wait edit: i take it as such a given that I forgot to mention the whole forwards v backs distinction#forwards = 1-8 (those in the scrum) backs = 9-15#that’s why 9 and 10 are halfbacks (they link the forwards to the backs) and the number 15 is the fullback
