your not to small u are a fair size im 5'2 120 pounds about 8 and a half stone I think I play open side flanker for my high schools team u don't need to be big to get the job done as long as u have good technique u will be fine like I said I play open side flaker number 7 for my high school sr girls team I would say im pretty good I can make most of my tackles and I can clear out rucks like its no ones business im 15 almost 16 and am not growing anymore so I will stay this size I am planning on playing with post secondays school that I go to as of now I play girls ages 14-19 and akmost everone on the field is bigger then me even the backs I am only bigger then 1 person on my team and not by much she plays scrum half so u may be really small for a forward but I am really small for even a back and play forward so just go out and enjoy the game
