Winning the Breakdowns
Simple drill to improve techniques when facing the three most common ruck situations:
1) Joining ruck at same time as defender;
2) Clearing 'jackal' (defender reaching down to poach ball); and
3) Defender laying on ball (flopping on ball).
Key points:
Stay nice and low
Use your glutes
Push through and drive pass the ball
