Fullback
The Fullbacks role in a team is to cover behind the defensive line when defending and then can pop up in to the attacking line when going forward to disrupt the opposition’s defence. The most important focus for a fullback is positioning; being in the right position will stop the opposition making dangerous kicks, it will prevent line breaks from turning into tries and when attacking, good positioning can easily produce an overlap and try scoring opportunities. The Fullback should work with the two wingers to make up a back 3 that can cover all of the pitch and not allow any opportunities for the opposition.
