great analysis

Would be interesting to see how this works against an actual defence :)

This is the best set piece try I’ve ever seen! Superb!!!

Great analysis!

Love that graphic - so clear and easy to see what's going on. Nice !!

For me, there's a gap to put 12 through, the defense doesn't come up evenly at all and the Quins 10 (Smith?) gets stuck on his heels; even if he makes a tackle there it's easy ground with your back row coming through for quick ball. Next best option is to get it wide to 11 and 15; the kick defence doesn't come up very quickly, meaning there aren't good kick options but there's space on the outside corner.

Brilliant analysis 🎉

Great try and analysis

Awesome analysis 👏

great analysis

very good analise!

Dark dark dark arts...only props comprehend

It wasnt a contest it was like men against children.

Nice simple breakdown Evan. You've won a sub here ✌️

Thanks for your analysis. I’ve learned a lot rugby by following you.

I know it is a small thing and in a way rugby 101, but the 'watching the hips' is so important and it strikes me that it says a lot about Canterbury/Crusaders attention to getting all the small things right, to doing the basics extremely well. I suspect it is part of the reason why the club/franchise can cope so well with injury and the ongoing hollowing out of provincial level quality, because even an otherwise modestly talented player can do a good job if they have really worked on getting a solid foundation in the basics. It is surprising how often you will see players at Super Rugby level with major deficits in basics skills, including basic parts of their position. This applies especially to Australian players but you see it in NZ, too. You just won't see it too often at Canterbury/Crusaders. The Brumbies are another unit that seem to have a very strong and coherent focus on the small things. Thanks for the analysis - really enjoyed it.

Ireland - France Six nations 2023 Same thing

martial arts state that when crouched, you gotta have a foot forward to align your chest with your line of power. Lined feet = weak point just below your chest. Does this apply for the props during scrum? It certainly does in tackling

My dad says to look at their knees, it’ll make you instinctively go lower and your shoulder will hit the thigh and make a better tackle, it works well, now I eat scrumhalfs for breakfast

Anyone got a simple explanation for what inside shoulder and outside shoulder are ? Cheers

In other words? How your taught from a young age?

First time in years one can say watching Ireland isn’t boring... and quite effective !

Hi, any chance of getting a video on Tadhg Furlong? To help reveal why he's the best tight head in the world? Including what he does that's great in open play. Would be awesome!

Brilliant, any recent videos though?

Them more I watch this the more it looks staged

IRELAND IS GOOD NOW AND SO IS SEXTON

Brilliant!

If there had not been a touch down there would have been a penalty try. The scorer was given a deliberate push in the back by a chasing Welsh player.

The Koch block makes this whole play

So tell me, what's the difference in the first example between Cian Healy and Jamie George?? Healy is forward. George is forward. So why are Ireland penalised??

I think coaches like Eddie Jones have understood and applying this type of thinking for a long time now. Heck for EJ basically every ruck is it's own micro Set-Piece.

It's that Joe Schmidt from Ireland who got that move on for the Aussies to get one past us Saffas!

Nice analysis!

How did you get this angle? could see it from this angle on the original game footage.

High number of options seems to be the trick nowadays.

Awesome play.

Great video! Sry for my poor knowledge but how is that block not an illegal obstruction?

Great snippet of analysis 👍

I saw Scott’s college run this exact move in one of their highlights videos in 2014… it’s so sexy when it works

this reminds me of a leinster defense strategy with Leo Cullen where the defender (usually a center) closed the space up and the second and third row went to his back to fill the gap... if you can make moves with inside balls a pivot and 2 options outside you can really exploit these ways to defend

And the ref runs a blocking line

A thing of beauty!

Im a fan of well constructed moves that opens up space to run the ball,but not when fowards run infront defenders to upset or blind defenders and shield the ball carrier.This must be banned. It should not be legal.

Great breakdown. I think we are ready for the World Cup a year early..

Ireland will probably bottle it at the world cup, as usual.

Yay, 100th comment!

Really enjoyed your analysis

The day sexton retires will be tragic

I don't know any other 10 that orchestrates the players around him like Sexton. He really is a sort of player/coach/tactician all in one. What the hell are we going to do without him 😭

Lot of Irish indiscretions missed too.
