What are the main attributes of a good tighthead prop?

Paul

For your RFU Level 2 you will need to do a bit of thinking yourself - but here are some main attributes for you to enlarge on!

Tight Head Prop

• Be the strong man (the rock) of the Scrum
• Strong runner with the ball over short distances
• Normally a square shaped player – big shoulders and strong legs
• Ability to stay on feet and pass in contact
• Strong tackler – tackles man and ball

I hope this helps you
