Brilliant video. Used this when I was coaching Women in Turin last season. Will use it again now with my next team. Maybe you could do another one to compare what Felix Jones is now doing? If so, let me know. ;) Thanks brother

So then what are the tactics and strategies for playing against a rush defense? Is it quick ball from ruck (2 seconds or less)? Having 10/12 using a chip/grubber kick to slow down future defensive line speeds? Having that first "carrier" act as a hard dummy runner to commit double rush? I have also saw that the best way to start against a rush defense is to make sure that your rucks are mainly in the center of the field, as opposed to 5 meter line (which as you alluded in your video is exactly what a rush defense thrives against).

All these sounds like great strategies, Michael!

Steve Hansen in a n interview after this years bledisloe 1 gave away the tip to stop rush defense. use a runner around the ruck and hit the defense line with power and all blacks used it to their benefit in the second bledisloe against Australia. please do a video on that as well.

Hi! Thanks for having a look. I do actually have that video on my website (www.thecontactcoach.com). Look for NZ Return Play. Definitely lot's of power plays to stop the rush.

Pick and go perhaps? If they are able to break the line consistently might force England to commit more numbers to rucks.

Great question! Much easier said than done, but winning the gain line consistently and fast speed of recycled ball will help keep defense organization and line speed down. Smart kicking that turns defenders with a good chase/contest would also be useful. Easy from the armchair, a bit tougher on the field!

@@ContactCoach hey coach cheers for replying. The chip over is quite effective but how do you gain gain line advantage against any team delivering so many dominant hits, with plenty of cover as they don’t compete at the breakdown...
@ContactCoach4 жыл бұрын
@@thebullishpartridge1227 I would frame it like 'power plays'. It starts with a dominant set-piece then a quick power play to get over the gain line. That will mean the defenders looking to fold will have to go backward to get setup. Then the next play can be similar to keep the defence on the back foot. I broke down England's try versus NZ in the semi of the RWC that has a few elements I'm talking about. What are your thoughts?
