The IRB employs this coach to assess work scrums and advise on rules. Unfortunately the IRB does not adopt many of them. The scrums are reviewed after every game and advice given to certain players, especuially when theyre putting others life in danger. This coach also coaches many other coaches on how to start the proces of improving scrummaging with their players. This coach also assesses referees performances sometimes after internationals. He advises refs but some are useless.
its amazing that such small things make a massive difference and also why arent the IRB talking to these people to sort out all the dropped scrums i cant help thinking it would make a massive difference
we are starting scrum, second row on one knee but and holding tight but irf rep showed us that we have to stand which makes me of balance ( falling forward) but 8 and flanker have to pull us back for balance! on engage they releases us and weight does the job but 2nd row is not tight in that case which i find weird!
I find it hard to go to that low and stay balanced as I'm 6,3 ft and my prop is 5ft. something! Any advice?
@godra051 mite be a few months and you probly got your technique sorted. but when your in the second row and you have to be on your feet, try pulling your front row by leaning back that way when they lean forward they can lean closer and get lower and on the hit your main foot is set and your other foot can align with it. another tip put your inside foot forward and use that as your main foot to take the weight of your lean. Im your height and i find this helps me alot
It depends on what you're looking for. If you are a young player in a school or university team, the best advice I can give you is to join a club and attend their training sessions as well. The club will be happy to have a new player and view you as an investment for the future. This is what I did as a young player and my scrummaging improved massively due to the specialist coaching I received. My general play improved as well because I was looking at the game from another team's
@alexfury2 i play 1st grade level but making the transition from loosey to front row been training as a hooker and loose head prop for da last 2months but my proping partner is heading off on contract & he was better than most club coaches becoz he was trained by Mike Cron which was a plus ,so im 26 years of age just looking 2 get that technique pat down so I can have the upper hand on my opposition coming into the new year as i will be heading overseas on contract,more tips wil be appreciated.
Christ this coach is brilliant; That is why a country that has 3.5million people can dominate rugby as it has done for decades. Coaches are the most important factor in any sport.
yeah you are right. But we have only been competitive in recent years- with our coaches- since wayne smith initially became involved. We are now developing them. We have the best coahcing group at the top. If we had great coaches we woulda been more competitve htrough the 1990s. we always have great players.
Your right. However , New Zealand if you take victories and defeats is N°1. Test matches tri nations etc all included. Today it's the Springboks that are N°1. It wont last either.
Been scrummaging for almost 17 years as a tight head prop and I've just learnt a few new things...wow, no wonder why the All Blacks scrum is still formidable even without Carl Hayman anchoring it. Mike Cron is a scrummaging guru alright....his understanding of biomechanics and how the body works in a scrum is amazing, worth every dollar the NZRFU is paying him for sure.

Hayman took time to develop as they all do. But yep a legend. Woody is right up there also.

Body position is the most important factor in scrummaging. It's amazing how this aspect is neglected.
Also, it's not funny to see those gym monkey who would bench press 100kg, but never work on their core

none of these guys look like front rowers to me.
Im a 2nd rower myself, is there anyone who can give me useful tips for the scrum? and by tips I mean things to improve my scrummaging.
