blindside flanker en · NOUN
Meanings
-
a forward in rugby union, usually number 6, who binds to the scrum on the side closest to the side line.
The position of the blindside flanker depends on the proximity of a touch line, so if the scrum takes place close to the left-hand touch line, the blindside flanker will be closest to that touch line.
