if you are thinking about the line out then its averaging 12 meters, if you consider a standard pass then its 2 meters
An official Rugby union ball is oval and made of four panels, has a length in-line of 280-300 millimetres, a circumference (end to end) of 740-770 millimetres, and a circumference (in width) of 580-620 millimetres.
100 metres in length, try line to try line. Additionally there is 10 - 22 mtrs between try line and dead ball line at each end. So anywhere between 120 and 144 metres overall.
Generally the Hooker (No. 2).
you may be in any position as a ball receiver as long as you are in line with the ball carrier or behind the ball carrier
When the ball goes out of play and you throw it in. A bit like a throw-in in football

No. A rugby pitch is 100 metres minium goal line to goal line and 70 metres maximum touch line to touch line. A football field is 53 yards wide and 100 years long
Throughout the game either one side or the other has possession of the ball. At the end of the game the referee calls "no side" to indicate that neither side has possession of the ball thereafter.
basically - a team will carry the rugby ball, passing backwards or kicking the ball forward to reach the opposing teams goal line. The ball will then require grounding by placing the hand of the attacking player on the ball as it touches or goes over the in goal area.
