Yes well done little Lurkio. Trouble is now when you go to the matches you'll be terrifed he'll end up getting hurt! :-) In what position does he play?
You don't want a skinny No 8 (feed him up!!). Does he run fast? If so he could be a centre, full back (you mentioned he could catch) or on the wing if he's fast. Mind you, if he's got a little bit of aggression, No8 could be ideal! A friend has a 14 year old who is already 6'00", with 11 1/2 feet, and he plays prop!
he's 12 and 5 ft 2 with size 6 feet i suspect he is heading for 6 ft odd
he will be bigger than me before the summer is out
i don't really thik he is built to play rugby, he is a bit slight more for long distance running as he has long legs and no bum (like his dad) but i could be completely wrong he is certainly still growing
I must measure my 12 year old. He'll be 13 at the end of the month but is in size 7's (I'm only 8 1/2!) but I can still rest my arm on his head much to his annoyance!!! I love kids but I couldn't possibly eat a whole one. boom.. boom... tish!
boy1 has been selected to be one of the ball boys at the DFS classic in brum - his school provide them he is hoping to be holding the sun shade over maria sharapova
:-)
and i am really hoping they give him a job like that too as i am a bit worried about him falling over or something if they actually have him manning the net. but he is not at all worried - and he gets full kit including trainers so he is very happy
lurker - good question. Last time you asked it was a 'no'. But I'm unsure whether I'm going to manage Lochaber at the moment. If not, I may be up for a fun October marathon...

In what position does he play?
rugby is a total mystery to me
(good english BTW - "in what position?" rather than "what position does he play in?")
Sounds like an ideal no 8
Thats the one at the back of the scrum
Tip - get him a gumshield....
he had it for karate
oh no
i'vejust realised
this will probably mean more chauferring
:-)

One of the most illuminating threads I've ever read.

which of course is fine by him
he is obsessed with sport - in an ASD way - but i never thought he would be doing so much of it in the physical sense
it's great
SVT - i know i asked you this somewhere else - but then forgot where it was - are you doing beachy head this year?
:-)
oh and being unable to walk for a day afterwards - although it wasn't as bad last year as it was the year before
this is well off topic
sorry slo sho if you come to look at it
