The higher up the rugby ladder you go, the differences between winning and losing games get smaller and smaller.
There was no way I was going to end up in the scrum when I came to rugby - you know, waste my pretty looks.
The scrum and the tackle are the two really contentious areas of the game. If you get those two aspects right, most rugby matches will work in your favour.
Obviously, international rugby is a different level, but there are some really good players around.
Ultimately, we are professional rugby people, and we focus on the rugby. That's the easy bit. We are not politicians, so we don't have to delve too much into that.
I definitely want to play rugby at the top level, international rugby.
If your form dips as a back-row forward, it is best to address the areas you know you're going to be heavily involved in.
Wales are obviously a team that like to play rugby in your half and put as many people as possible in the front line and get off the line and put pressure on you.
Rugby is a game where everything is connected - from your kicking game to your defence to your set piece and attack.
If anyone out there is mildly curious about rugby, I'd recommend a weekend spent watching the Six Nations. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
