we ran our lines 7 v 4. the guys just aren't getting it. a common problem was that they would rush the defense and put themselves under tremendous pressure before passing. they only beat the defense 30% of the time.
I need them to understand that there's no shot clock in rugby and that a heavyweight prize fighter doesn't knock out the opposition with his first punch.
I'd like to see them work the ball around with patience, speed, and accuracy. get the defense hustling laterally and then make them pay if they fly up. if the defense tries to ice the attack on the sideline, use the inside runner to relieve pressure in the passing lanes.
robbie fisher came out and looked great with the ball but not very fit. i'd like to get ross and haga out as well.
we played situational touch and finished with fitness.
