hey Kaneo... how long you been playing ! the more you play the better you should become, If your playing well for your local team then thats great you should get spotted by some scouts & soon be playing for your area/region team, guess thats the way you'll know if your good ! & then poss onto a club team.
Just because your 6.1 and fast at running doesn't mean your gona be the best ! remember its a team game so you need to be a great team player !
Good luck

i'm 5'a million", about ninety 5 lbs, and that i'm completely grown! i have performed rugby for more effective or less 2 years and that i'm continuously wing. Wing is an staggering position for those those who're small. Being small is honestly an benefit because of the very shown reality that our reflexes are certainly more effective useful. Smaller human beings actually have an inclination to be speedier. personally, i doesn't project to a lot about length. it truly is the technique and how you play the game it really is significant. on an identical time as small as i'm i have taken down gamers who're over 6' tall and 2 hundred+ lbs. best piece of advice in tackling: be sure you lock your hands once you opt for the address. This guarantees that your opponent will go down! good success and sorry it truly is so long!

depends if your a pussay or not. but sounds like it as the wing is where the pussays hang out.
grow some balls, harden up and get your *** in the guts and learn some skills instead of running your *** down the sideline trying not to get dirty then you might have a chance.
Get your *** in the gym and bulk up with muscle by the time your 17 at your height you should be pushin the ton (100kgs) because thats what the guy comin the other way is at least
wingers are only good in top level competition but to get that far being 6'1 at 14 dont mean crap as you might not grow another inch and could stay a bean pole.
im not saying you cant be the best but its not gunna happen on the wing in the under 15s get my drift
get out there and smash em!!!!

Maybe, maybe not. It is worth trying though, or you will always be wondering and you should play for fun, fitness and to improve your coordination.
To be the best, you have to be a natural and that is hard to tell probably, without an expert opinion. But you wil also need a lot of hard and determined training. It is hard work. Running backwards, sideways, jumping, weight training, etc.
Consider joining a rugby club in your area. They will train quite a bit. I played for a short time with a rugby club, and there was quite a bit of blood spilled - and that was just during practice!!

Yeah, why not,
but.. for a 14 year old wing you are pretty big.
When I was 14 and out on the wing I'd have **** myself if you came at me.
Now I'd hit you so hard you wouldn't think about trying to humiliate me again.
In a year or so you won't be so relatively big.
So work on your skills and speed (not strength so much - that's for gay gym monkeys)
Most people give up when things level out and start getting interesting at 16/17

Running fast is important but work on ball handling skills ie passing catching, and defencive moves like tackling. Then it is possible to be great. Join a local rugby club, especially one that runs a colts side and train every week.

Yeah man you can I am 14 and I am 6'3 and im pretty good to. You just need to keep your head held high,train as much as you can and play with honor. That and keep your body and mind in good condition then you will be playing for the All Blacks later on in life haha.

Physical attributes are one thing. Attitude is another. Develop the kind of attitude that keeps you humble, on the ground and working hard instead of a head-in-the-clouds attention seeking I'm the best attitude.

not likely, you would have to be an olypian to do that. but you can get very good, try to play in college as well, that can take you very far into the next level of play.
