\n\"\"<\/a>
\nHow Did You Learn?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Without mentioning an awful lot of guys who have helped me a lot including just about every person I have ever played with or against, I will mention two names here at this stage – Jacques Benade & Richard Mackie.<\/p>\n

Memorable Moments?<\/strong><\/p>\n

High Schools cup with the famous Dromore HS, we had just won it for the 7th time! In a row! The semi final was against Downshire who are good – it was a physical game.<\/p>\n

What does it mean to prop?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I grew up watching Dromore RFC.<\/p>\n

What is the role of Prop?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hold up the scrum, lineouts, carrying ball.<\/p>\n

What is it like?<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nThe 1st scrum tells the tale. If they are soft or not, the objective is to provide a solid platform and take it from there hopefully!<\/p>\n

Dark Arts?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Senior rugby is different to schools. Very different! Basically my objective is to get in underneath then.<\/p>\n

Who is the biggest messer in Dromore RFC?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Without a doubt, it is Aaron Stewart, he never shuts up, an all round header lol.<\/p>\n

Bears Wines or Spirits?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Beer<\/p>\n

Shaved or Unshaved?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Unshaved lol.<\/p>\n
