of the pyramid)
Im the fastest in my current team over 30 metres and am a good scavenger
at the breakdown. Also im good in offence with tackle evasion.

So bassically im just asking where you think i should play next season. Could
you send me any tips and tricks of that position too?


Cheers. Dom.

Answer
Hi Dom,

If you are going for a team where the coaches selecting you have never seen you before do yourself a favor and play in your current position. Play in it as well as you can. The coaches will not know if you are trying out a new position and if you are not familiar with it they will just assume you are not very good.

If you play well in your current position they may want to experiment with you in another position but let them be the ones to suggest that after you get selected.

Play your strengths, a team trial is not the time to try out a new position.

Also you didn't actually let me know what position you play in so I can't really give you any tips. What is your regular position?
