Nothing to contribute personally, but my Grandpa played for Ireland's national team 50+ years ago. Pretty rad I guess.

Started out as outside center, moved to inside.. Dabbled as a fly half. Played fullback/center for an all state team, then moved to winger for the rest of my Rugby days. Pretty much played all the backs.

I loved the game so much. Went down with a dislocated shoulder, pinched nerve, and moved a ligament in my shoulder on one tackle. That gradually ended my Rugby days. Tried playing college but in practice my shoulder would go numb on hits.

Anyone on here play in the tournament in 2006 in Baltimore MD? It was called the "U-19 All Star Rugby Challenge Cup". Pretty much all HS kids. I came up from Florida to play and there were a couple other states that came. .. Anyone else play in that one?
