One of the joys of rugby is that it is a sport
for all sizes. The 15 men who run out offer different skills for the various situations that may
occur. The scrum is made up of eight men who, whether short or tall, all share one trait - they are big brutes who like to
get stuck in.
Behind them the backs, contrastingly, offer speed and style. And the two sets
of players are joined by the half backs at numbers nine and ten, the talkers and tacticians of the side.
BBC Sport Online introduces you to the many faces that make a rugby XV.
