Message: [QUOTE="Viti, post: 2924083, member: 2302"] With this crackdown by the refs winning the ruck is going to become even more important, unfortunately it is probably one of our weakest points. I have no idea why but our forwards seem to have been coached to start in closer to the ruck then skip out past the a and b defenders to get a quick play the ball. I can’t say I’ve taken much notice of a storm game recently but I’d be willing to bet that’s the exact opposite of what their forwards are taught to do. If our forwards were to start their hit ups wider of the ruck that would create all the space they need to get there nose through the line then get down to there front and get a quick play the ball. Another way we could improve our chances of getting a quick play the ball is by sending our forwards at the gap between the 2nd marker and the a defender, the aim here would be to get at the 2nd marker to exploit the fact that they’re retreating so it makes it harder to make good contact on the runner.
