Rugby Coaching Video - Backs Move

[toblob1]

poor number 12 !!

[newstart2c]

this is a brilliant move

[NZsquadron]

lol how old is this shit, teams have worked out to blitz this a long time ago, need to watch crusaders vs sharks super 15 2011 game at twickenham, that move was voted the best set piece move of the season

[NewYorkChicken]

@NZsquadron Well considering the video was made in 2008...

[SilentGunner20]

Woahh I play 12, and I'll turn around any day, I have the ball tucked you should be worried about the switch and if you're not I'm dishing that first option. No way i'm getting smashed. Remember all those players can catch the ball. Read the D.

[ImmaHero1818]

never turn around during an offensive line ..

[aph22293]

so what happens when the defence is playing a blitz defence? 12 ends up in hospital?

[weightonboy]

easy to defend against this move. Referees will also give benefit of the doubt - when a man is hiding the ball with back to opposition. The blind side winger's run is broadcasted - the defence can be static and just make the tackle from a flat position easily. And in the Barbarians try against England - there was every opportunity to SMASH the man poncing about selling dummies. It was just poor defending by England. Straight up.

[jolleygoodshow]

if you are so confident the twelve wouldnt get hammered, perhaps you could add in a clip of this in a real game, i Say this because if i were playing openside, that twelve would have been waking up in an ambulance!

[byorce]

this is a terrible idea for a play, 0/10 times this will work cause by the time the BS comes around ur inside is going to get hammered along with this won't fake anybody out.

[TheMacca1000]

Number 12 would be flattend!

[MrMoPie]

nice forward pass.

[oliverburke]

Rarely seen a player have time to pump fake 2 or 3 times.

Only time w/ back turned is tricky All Blacks play from a penalty.

This move likely to have initial success.

But once 12 shows her/himself exposed like that once, I, as a 7, would have a chat w/ my 10 & 12 to cover the rest, & I would fly at that 12 as hard as I could next time. (maybe that's the point).

Dangerous to have back turned against sprinting opposition on a rugby pitch.

Tape prompts entertaining discussion, though :).

[dodger2k11]

15 would have him

[slots21]

Works at the top level. See the Gareth Thomas try for the Barbarians v England in 2008.

It won't "break your back"

[Valencius]

they'll break your back

[berniebreak123]

I totally agree sargares18. Its so frustrating.

[sargares18]

looks a good move, the problem is pulling it off. playing colts atm and there are maybe 3 backs with good hands. i feel like twice the player when playing with club first team because there is always a good pass and always support. and when i offload, they actualy catch rather than than knock it on.

it seems unless your playing at a decent level, anything even remotely effective has to be ruled out.

[rugge123]

this move is brilliant when done right. Especially with the back line being further back of a scrum, and if the defense isnt blitzing the whole game it is a great move to use.

[scottyriorc]

davesworld why are you even commenting on a rugby video your from the united states it isnt american football lol

[siakidutch]

Good move. Better rugby coaching always have some good moves, especially the backs.

[BetterRugbyCoaching]

Please don't swear.

[davesworld716]

you guys would get murked if you were turned around and doing that pump faking shit i mean itas cool just need to do it quiker

[jake4ash]

12 would get murdered. you cant turn around into a tackle. thats jus askin to be smashed in the back.

[BetterRugbyCoaching]

12 tends not to get "murdered", but has got to make the decision about whether the move is on or not. The move is used regularly by players of all abilities.

[jake4ash]

well i play 12 or 15 an if my opposite man was like that i would love it. he woudnt be getting up.

[alex22293]

@BetterRugbyCoaching how would the 12 know if the play ison or not if he is not facing the right way? this is a terrible move seeing as the defnece would kill the 12 if they are playing a press defence and even if their not the 12 doesnt have a clue if the play is on or not because he cant see the opposition.

[SilentGunner20]

@BetterRugbyCoaching If you stop, so does the D, and for a blitz.. Uhh I'd just give the 1-2 loop option and send it wide.

[kylewyote3]

needs to be way quicker...blind side needs to be WAY WAY quicker

[BetterRugbyCoaching]

This is, of course, a training clip. The speed the move needs to be performed at depends on the sbility of the players and the quality of the opposition.

[olliejames08]

10 and 12 need to be flat and not run forward at all for this to work. done it many times. if 12 runs its to hard for both 11 and 13 to time their runs perfectly with a defence coming on to them

[joel123465]

12 would get smashed!

[BetterRugbyCoaching]

12 tends not to get smashed, but has got to make the decision about whether the move is on or not
