What do you mean used to be? Second row forward is still the position. All the positions are named by where they stand at the scrum. The most confusion I've heard over a position is 'what the hell does five-eighth mean?'
About two thirds - 62.5%
It's name is derived from how intelligent you need to be to play there
"Why didn't he pass when there was a huge gap there for the other guy to run into?"
"Because he's about two thirds as smart as the team mascot"
"You mean five eighths as smart as?"
Yeah, whatever.... merkin
