Did dan carter find it difficult to play rugby?
Rugby is a difficult sport for anyone, I have played so I may be able to help. Rugby players have to remember to stay behind the person on their team with posesion of the ball at all times because you can only pass the ball backwards and not forwards, they also have to remember to pass the ball a certain way because if you pass wrong and your ribs are exposed you can get hurt really bad. They have to remember to yell ball really loud when they are ready to get a pass from someone in front of them and this really helps.
