Nice learning content. thanks Dave

 —  South Africa

I love the simplicity and clarity of the calls also the passing fix by dropping the body height

 —  Ireland

Great lesson from Dave. I think it could be improved if you have more mics (on the players) to hear clearly when they shout the code (salt/ Tui/ punch/ bang)

 —  Great Britain & Northern Ireland

fantastic tool to use.if you want to be dinamic in attack you have to get the basics right.

 —  South Africa

great stuff

 —  Australia

Very good videos

 —  Morocco

Gold! Vinaka

 —  New Zealand

This is excellent stuff but what was really telling for me was the comment Dave made in the 2nd video. He mentioned getting the Catch / Pass skills right. If you dont have these basic skill levels this will not work. A real eye opener for backs (and forwards).

 —  England

Incredible video and instruction from Dave plus the Drone angles show it even better. No wonder the Kiwis are so good as the coaching and details are amazing. The running lines series are perfect for me as a coach thank you so much.

 —  Australia

This is really excellent.
