A lack of fear and a high threshold for pain.

Some good boots, rugby shorts (don't come in anything else...you'll lose them), rugby jersey (come in a shirt and you'll lose that as well), plenty of motrin, mouth guard, head gear (only if you work a job that requires you to look pretty and you can't brag about the scars), medical coverage and a high pain tolerance. See you on the pitch mate!

The only equipment youll need is.
Pair of boots
Mouthguard, ( Definate )
Pads slow you down,
If you play without pads you will hit harder and hurt the opposition more,
Very few players wear shoulders pads after junior level.

everyone NEEDS a gumshield, noone while think your hard because you dont have one and itll prevent the ref from sending you off because you dont have one.
heavy/thick cotton shorts-dont rip and if your being lifted in a lineout it makes it much easier for the lifters and stops your nuts from crushing.
rugby/cycling shorts their especially made to wear under your shorts, they keep you warm and keep everything in place.
a pair of studded boots.
high football socks
a scrumhat if your in the frontrow to stop you getting coliflower ear.
underpadding-its like a slightly padded vest(if your a forward, theres less pressure on your shoulders)

A first aid kit, the number of a good dentist, and crutches.
Beyond that, the club team will issue you a jersey. You'll need cleats (boots), and mouth-guard, shorts. It's not expensive to get into, unless the league you join has heavy fees/dues.

Gumshield (mouthguard)
boots (or soccer cleats if you're a small fellow and will be playing as a back)
a good pair of heavy cotton shorts (preferably with pockets)
some soccer socks
and a scrum cap if you're gonna be a forward and want you keep your ears intact.
Other than that your club should provide you with a jersey, but to practice a good heavy cotton shirt while do the job nicely. No t-shirts, they rip waaay to easily

Boots, shin pads, gum shield. balls of solid rock and the ability to take a hit without breaking. You can wear shoulderpads if your a bit of a woman too!

You dont need any equipment unless your a forward then you might want to invest in a scrum cap to avoid your face from getting nicked up
