Ireal training requirements for Irish players to make the national team:
Forwards
Front Row:
110+ Weight
AND
18 strength
16+ tackling
11+ speed
2nd Row:
200+ Height
110+ Weight
AND
18 strength
5 or less tackling
12+ speed
12+ handling
OR
18 strength
14+ tackling
10+ speed
Flanker:
18 strength
18 tackling
8+ speed
Number 8:
18 speed
16+ tackling
10+ strength
OR
18 strength
15+ tackling
8+ speed
8+ passing & handling
Preferably all forwards should have at least 80+ rucking with preferably high tackling as well! 18-18s with high rucking are all very welcome! Basically with the game it is now rucking is king! So get all forwards to 80+ rucking and we'll compete with the better nations!
Backs
Scrum Half:
18 strength/speed
18 tackling
10+ passing
Fly Half:
18 strength/speed
18 tackling
8+ passing & handling
Kicking Winger:
18 strength/speed
18 kicking
6+ passing
8+ handling
Winger:
18 strength/speed
14+ tackling
12+ handling
Centre:
18 strength/speed
16+ tackling
8+ passing & handling
Full Back:
18 speed
17+ tackling
7+ passing & handling
Backs with high tackling and good passing and handling is what is required! The rucking doesn't matter too much but it wouldn't hurt as backs are involved in the odd ruck as well as loose balls! But if they have good passing and handling and tackling it'll mean they compete with the better back lines!
Hope this helps and that you can all train great players for the Irish NT and have Ireland competing with the best in RM!
