I don't often see catches off kicks like this, much more common is the "basket" catch, where the ball lands into a cradle and into the chest. It's a much safer bet and protects the ball better from attacking players
Aren't most professionals just experts at the fundamentals? Hitting a baseball, shooting a basketball, slapping a hockey puck...there are basic fundamentals involved. I think the pro's have simply mastered such techniques, and it is why they are professionals.
Hey if anyone here thinks these tips aren't that great, it would be nice if you could reply a message about where I can find good rugby tips, just started having fun!
@iAmChrissable You should I swear, I always wanted to play it. My dad played for Wasps as a flanker and he always wanted me to play rugby. I used to play it and on my 2nd week i got promoted to be forward because my club saw that I had strength and then I had to quit for a while because I got severely ill and hopefully next week i'm starting again!!
fuck you and your mother sammyKTA sayin americans cant learn the rules for rugby and the fact that america sucks at rugby is cause our country doesn't play put some of our football players on a team give them 9 months we would dominate
@Rex9258 lol if you insist you dumb american twat, I wonder how long these (American) football players can actually do constant cardio excercise before they would need a rest, In (American) Football the plays last less than a minute then you have 30 seconds to make the next play, In Rugby you can have a solid period of back and forth between 10 - 40 Minutes with out a break, 9months to get your cardiovascular system to that level is damn near impossible, I used to play (American) football btw
@SammyKTA I hope GridIron never takes off anywhere but America! I think its a boring and uneventful activity - its not a sport because there is no sustained effort - its all stop start, stop start. You look at Martin Offiah at the Breat Britain v Australia at Wembley try where he ran from the Australia touchline non-stop to the score a Try at the Aussie end! He was motoring down the field - thats what athleticism is not these overweight American football players!
try and do that in a game situation under a highball, and the opposition will just jump up, catch it and score, and you will be left stsanding ther looking like a prick.
The US of A are good at most track sports, simply due to volume of athletes and genetics,( thanks to the slave trade)! now here in N.Z....As far as rugby goes NZ did not event the game, but we took a rich white mans sport and made it into a working class "hard mans" game...and added flair and power of the maori and islanders.
Tho as a kiwi i dread the day that the Americans take to rugby...because speaking of athletes the Americans have a surplus.
@isaacskedgwell I'm a huge rugger league fan and I don't mind union - but this attitude of class gets annoying! Granted, league is played in the poorer Northern Counties like Bradford, Salford, Widnes, Warrington but these are the backbone manufacturing areas of Britain. League is almost the national sport in Australia are you saying that everyone in Australia is working class?Its bit of a restricted view I think!
@MovieMad007 Good point, Im from New Zealand so can't speak for the ozzys. I was meaning that the style of rugby that is played in New Zealand is influenced by the polynesian and maori. This makes for a entertaining game, but if you just look at the last two world cups, England 2003 and South Africa 2007 won by playing a 10 man game... And sorry for the class thing, i was referring to the 1870- 1880s when the english settlers came to N.Z. And even then thats subjective. So I retract.

@isaacskedgwell: I beleave that the Europian countries were involved with the slave trade as well. Or are the blacks in Europe just escaped USA slaves? The fact is that American Football over shadows our rugby. And a big part of it it that there is no money in US rugby. Its coming back slowly but surely and soon you'll see our "genetics" in the world cup.
@MrMoPie exacly ...bad example if you're looking how to do i properly,cold winters day high ball ,catch it like he is on the vid with his hands,you've knocked it on and concided a scrum.Coming from a high level academy rugby union coach.
Bullshit that is not how to catch a rugby ball and WHY Is a FUCKING BurgerMuncher telling us how to play Rugby Which was invented by the English!!!!! Piss ME OFF!!!
why would america be good at a sport that no one gives a fuck about? What other sports do we get dominated in that we actually give a fuck about? When was the last time somebody from AUS or NZL beat USA in any track and field event ? lmfao
@sedric99 your argument can just as easily be presented for new zealand about rugby dick, you dont see any new zealand "master classes" about field or track events do you dick, again you have just illustrated how small minded americans are, and im fairly certain you just got dominated in the last olymipics in track and field events by an even smaller country than new zealand, jamaca, the only reason america has generally good athletes is a direct result of slavery, name 5 top white atheletes?
Relax and give these guys credit for spreading info about the game in an area (northamerica) which, largely, sees and knows nothing of this great game...........
(and remember: 30 years ago, "the yanks" couldn't play soccer either...)
@waterbuoyish fuck of batty boy, this is my national sport, i will not relax, typical american attitude, they don't even have a national side and they have the audacity to post a master class, its insulting, every skill he has on here is crappy anyway, search new zealand skills and this will inform your north american friends of how to play

They have a population of, what 4 million.... vs 350 million for the US. Having spent alot of time in both, (my wife is American and I have kiwi cousins) I can tell you that the average kiwi is ten times the athlete (and likely alot less obese) than the average yank.
Both, however are GREAT countries.

@normalais your stereotype is amusing, and incorrect. "Down under", refers to Australia, not New Zealand, quite different. And as for why rugby being New Zealand's national sport being important, read the below comments and perhaps you will understand, if not comment again i will happily explain to your uninformed self.
@philjonesisdaman that's what i meant new zealand australia who gives a crap their both down under there. and i never said rugby is not important to you, I said so what if it is? grow up and get over it. stop acting like a stupid muslim when someone says something about mohammed
@normalais i'm fairly certain you've have completely missed what i was arguing, it being important to me is of no relevance to my argument, you're an idiot, i merely stated the importance of rugby to my country, my argument was with with americans posting a master class of rugby, with which they dont even have a national side,
@normalais shut tough guy, you tube provides a comment box to comment on video's faggot, its a comment about the credibility of the video, attacking me because of my criticisms are real mature mate,
@philjonesisdaman whatever you say hillbilly. ps rugby sucks who cares anyway. you should be happy that somebody in usa cares about rugby enough to play it and make some stupid video
Isn't that a bit wrong, a V shape should be formed with your elbows and make like a funnel to your chest and recieve it like that... if im right, thumbs up and ill make a vid on how to, show these yanks how 2 play lol
dont do what the guy on the video says bring it down but don't bring it down to your hip actually bring it to your chest because then if you do fumble it ,its still going to be in your arms and in chest instead of running around picking it off the floor,and if you think this is no good well i play for the 6th best school in england and im 14
whoever taught him to catch a high ball is obviously an idiot... who the hell catches in their hands like that?! just watchin a video of rob kearney or lee byrne playing would be alot more useful
I really don't think it matters how to catch the ball. I assume this is the same thing as a kick off return in American football. I really want to try this sport.
im 14 and at my age there is no time to bring the ball in so y the fuk is hes telling people to do that by the time u catch it nd bring it in you will be smashed like if you in the backs it wastes time CATCH IT OUT IN FRONT !!! fuking yankys
you must be shit if you cant pull the ball into your stomach before gettin smashed. ive never been smashed whilst catching as if im about to i go to ground, place the ball and my support player pops it up and passes it out' simples.
from high kick you fucking goon you need to take it in not like the guy in the video but from a start off you should take it in properly, and i know what im on about cus i play for newport dragons academy. fucking 14 year olds.
thats so true when the kick is like 30 meter high you cant catch it liek that you will need to do a how cna i say you need to use your arms to stop the bal and your chest to stop the ball rom going away thats how i do it its good this way
yeah, your elbows need to be together, put your arms in air (make something like basket out your hands), when catching, you need to breathe out your air, and for better play, you need to stand a lil bit side ways so you can pass it in situation to other team member.
I usually play Lock (second row scrum) because I am tall and sometimes if needed, I play as hooker because I trained much passing line-out throws and I make codes for my team. Earlier I played as wing, but wasnt so good.
is it supposed to be a joke, Its in the backs- when you start planning excellerated loops, switches and mispasses all in one move that it gets tougher. not 'how to catch the ball' HOW IS THIS ADVANCED?
You should catch the ball into your chest yes, not with just your hands like that moron did. Giving your body a slight tilt prevents it from being knocked on and less of a target for the defense to cream you!!
thats bullshit. The techinque is way more simple stop being a pussy goin on about the soft spots. Catch the ball through your chest and hands not just the hands unless you wana give away loads of penatltys due to knock forwards
well..football for my highschool doesnt start till jan..and itll be my first time playing..but what ive been told is that rugby is like football with no pads...sort of..but im trying to find a video that nails all the basics..so if anyone can tell me or at least provide a better video than this please let me kno so i dont look too much like a dipshit at the practices :P
this guy dont no wat hes onnabout i play league n got a scholarship with huddersfield giants and been playing since i was 4 and the best way to catch it is to bring the ball into ure chest so the ball is safer
he's american talking about the greatest game on eartrh don't listen to him he doesn't know what he's talking about i'm only 16 and i have represented SA in the under 20's world cup as a full back and if i got caught taking a ball like that i would be shot
About the only thing he got right here is his body position side on so as to avoid a knock on and protect your body from the tacklers, the rest is well utter crap.
hahahahahahaha wrong!!! mate you wouldnt have the first clue of catching the ball.. mate.. its guts/chest/shoulders.. NOT " Catch the ball and pull it towards you" haha ur a joke..
if you go for it and drop it........ im positive most refs will give it is a knock on, dont position your body to cover incade you drop it......... just dont drop it.......... guide the ball in with your hands, like a run way, but then cradle it with youtr elbows comin together as you catch it
i've played rugby for 12 years of my life. and that...is the preporation to drop, the ball. Try it going 90 feet in the air...bit of a difference. if that balls spinning guys n you try to catch like that....knock on.
gay catch.. u catch with your arms out retard.. if it was like a high high high bomb you DEFINETLY DONT CATCH THE WAY HE DID! a 80-90% chance you'll drop it..
guys,the proper way way is to use the 'basket'

I really don't think it matters how to catch the ball. I assume this is the same thing as a kick off return in American football. I really want to try this sport.

thats so true when the kick is like 30 meter high you cant catch it liek that you will need to do a how cna i say you need to use your arms to stop the bal and your chest to stop the ball rom going away thats how i do it its good this way
porthgus 2 years ago
yeah, your elbows need to be together, put your arms in air (make something like basket out your hands), when catching, you need to breathe out your air, and for better play, you need to stand a lil bit side ways so you can pass it in situation to other team member.
realIBeliX 2 years ago
yeah thats true whats your position ?
porthgus 2 years ago
I usually play Lock (second row scrum) because I am tall and sometimes if needed, I play as hooker because I trained much passing line-out throws and I make codes for my team. Earlier I played as wing, but wasnt so good.
you?

is it supposed to be a joke, Its in the backs- when you start planning excellerated loops, switches and mispasses all in one move that it gets tougher. not 'how to catch the ball' HOW IS THIS ADVANCED?

olithegummybear 2 years ago
You should catch the ball into your chest yes, not with just your hands like that moron did. Giving your body a slight tilt prevents it from being knocked on and less of a target for the defense to cream you!!

thats bullshit. The techinque is way more simple stop being a pussy goin on about the soft spots. Catch the ball through your chest and hands not just the hands unless you wana give away loads of penatltys due to knock forwards

About the only thing he got right here is his body position side on so as to avoid a knock on and protect your body from the tacklers, the rest is well utter crap.

if you go for it and drop it........ im positive most refs will give it is a knock on, dont position your body to cover incade you drop it......... just dont drop it.......... guide the ball in with your hands, like a run way, but then cradle it with youtr elbows comin together as you catch it

jtthreppo 2 years ago 2
i've played rugby for 12 years of my life. and that...is the preporation to drop, the ball. Try it going 90 feet in the air...bit of a difference. if that balls spinning guys n you try to catch like that....knock on.
TheZZ109 2 years ago 2
cyclone, next time you play rugby, try catching it that way then. we'll see whos the idiot..... if youve ever even played rugby....
Only thing the dude does right is turning his body so he doesnt knock it forward if he drops the ball
