Rugby: Set Piece From Scrum - King Ball

Description

Scrum within opposition halfway middle of the pitch.

8 picks up and goes right

Pops to 9 coming round quickly

14 starts straight and cuts in diagonally to look for pop off 9

9 dummies and passes long ball wide to 15 from depth who looks for space at speed

Opposition 15 & 11 should be drawn in to make tackles on 8,9,14

Coaching points

Scrum needs slight right shoulder to take threat from away from opposition 8 & flanker

14 to time run as 8 picks up

15 holds initially and then increases speed

Be aware of mistakes therefore 11 & 13 need to be tracking across for knock ons and kick through if they counter attack.
