I love the idea of not playing off of a playbook or a tightly structured attack – BUT to play what is in front of you…training players to make their own decisions.

Canada

Very good simple pods explained. Very good work Aaron.

South Africa

Fantastic series that does a great job illustrating the structure and evolution of 1-3-3-1 through the phases.

USA

Great insight on a new attack formation. Biggest challenge is figuring out where/when backs enter the play. Having backs & forwards wearing different color bids would really clarify who is going where.

USA

Video did not work

Sri Lanka

Great video and loved your use of the blocks and drone footage + basic video editing.

Belgium

Traducir al español por favor!!!!

Spain

Great way of using such a simple item as wooden block, like the ownership self organisation aspect

England

Aaron does a great job of showing ‘what’ and ‘how’. Somehow I missed ‘why’. Where can I find ‘why’?

USA

Outstanding series of videos that are clear and concise The concept of blocks as an alternate to a white board is fantastic and invites buy in and creativity from the players

Australia

Good visual demonstration of attack structure. I think this is the same concept that Graham Henry tried to illustrate on a white board during the clinic in California, but this is a much clearer way of showing how this kind of structure works. However, even though each position’s role is described, it’s hard to see the numbers on the blocks. I like it when the players move their own position’s block – gets them more involved.

USA

I really liked the different perspectives from the drone, go pro, etc.. Good job editing all the pieces together.

USA

per favore i sottotitoli in inglese o spagnolo. io sono italiano e NoN undestend Inglish. Tanck YOU!

Italy

Thanks Coach Jones- I like the clarity provided to the players in just a few words -brief but comprehensive. Also the interactive nature of the session and your blocks -thanks for sharing.

New Zealand

Excellent video on attack structure.

England

Thought video very insightful and easy to follow and understand – use a 2/3/3 spilt myself but will look at 1/3/3/1 – it is obviously easier to run these attack shapes off line outs and wide scrums with the space outside – would like to see this attack pattern off a mid field scrum

Ireland

Good job Jonesy.

New Zealand

On point, great to see these various shapes being demonstrated. Look forward to 2-4-2 and maybe 1-3-2-2????

England

great video.

Belgium

Great video very useful, when is part 2 available?

Wales

I really like the visual, use of blocks, and the manipulative idea. I sense this might help my players better understand any concept you are trying to help them with. Thanks for a great explanation and a great idea.

Canada

Very creative Aaron. Can you do a formation where you transition from 1-3-3-1 to 2-4-2 and vice versa? Cheers.

Australia

I use bottle caps.

Argentina

Great simple way to engage even the younglings

USA

that video is amazing

Argentina

Love the use of blocks, saves me carrying a white board and magnetic numbers, works like a general planning a battle. Really good. Carter Croft.

England

Great way to engage young players in the thought process around roles and relevance of structure in attack, thanks

England
