Super 14s Reds v Sharks
Some great tries illustrating offloading, footwork, kicking, rucking, working through channels, spreading it wide…
Lots on offer! Can you think of the “drills” to teach some of these “game skills”?

I am just writing out my season plan. On my list I have nine areas I know I need to cover in training:
1. Tackling
2. Handling
3. Footwork
4. Kicking
5. Rucking
6. Mauling
7. Scrum
8. Lineout
9. Match tactics
I am ignoring rugby conditioning at the moment. If I have four weeks, I have worked out that I should cover four areas a week, with match tactics thrown in for the last few weeks.
