Best Answer

It depends on your size, shape and weight. A tall person would make a good second row. A short, thickset, strong person would make a good hooker. The smallest player on the pitch is generally the scrum-half. And the fattest would be the prop. The fastest would be the wingers. The best kicker on the team would be the fly-half. So the best position in Rugby depends on your body shape and skill.

Very good question

well halfback no. 9 on the field would be the most vulnerable because of being targeted behind rucks and pressure from scrums

also first five no. 10 on the field is a place were most of the ball goes to and major pressure from opposite team may tackle you during passing and kicking

It depends, if you are larger and tougher maybe prop or second row. Or if your faster, wing or fly half.
