Best Practice for the Loop Pass
If one were to really flood the back line by bringing in the weak side wing AND fullback (off a scrum), who would you recommend using to cover for kicks on turnover ball? I'm thinking the blind side flanker could loop around to do it, but then you lose his services at the breakdown. Thoughts?
any suggestions for improving ability in using the loop pass and what variations can be used?
