A huge generalization of course and also largely dependant on the country. IE The players in New Zealand would be a lot bigger than in Japan. Lets talk about the big guys of world rugby. New Zealand(All Blacks), South Africa(Springboks) and the Australian(Wallabies). All Southern Hemisphere. The props are generally the heavy guys, a decent international prop is about 115-130kg. These guys are the brute strength of the team to go one way, forward. The locks are the really tall guys but also quite big. Average height for an international lock is about 6ft5 to 6ft8 and in the region of 118kg. These guys win the line out ball, both for and against the throw. The back three( numbers 6, 7 and 8) aren't quite as big but are generally the quicker guys around the field. Average height is about 6ft4, weight would be about 110kg.

Rule 2 of the IRB regulation states that the ball be 280 to 300 mm in length, with a circumference of 740 to 770 mm from one end to the other. The ball's width should have a circumference of 580 to 620 mm, according to the rule.
