Course reviews
Carter Croft EnglandExcellent from our captain. Carter Croft.
Chris Rose EnglandAn excellent video demonstrating a simple but highly effective defensive system that can be applied by all age groups and levels.
Peter Wood Scotlanddo ABC stay fixed or is there an argument for filling inside C outside B so allow the wrap to get in position quicker
Alan Iwata JapanIt showed important basic points. B goes to 9 and A should close the gap, which is sometimes confusing and difficult to stick to when players are tired. The video showed one mistake example which was good to see the actual situation. Small talks are important in the event of drifting outside when the number is down. Very good basic lesson.

robertosalucci ItalyThe defense around a ruck or after a tackle can be made with the same number of players or outnumbered. Courtney Lawes shows how you should defend. Great video.
Guillermo Ledesma Argentinainstructive , communication is essential , but even when you are in numerical inferiority
Trevor White EnglandVery good/clear. Not so good if your 10/12 etc can run the moves effectively to test the defence.
Fordz New Zealandawesome video, great way to teach your players there roles around breakdown step by step.
Alex Batten AustraliaI reckon Courtney Lawes would make an excellent coach when his playing days are over. Great enthusiasm.

Flanker RussiaVery useful and practical advice.
Jim Clawson USACoupling this video with the Graham Henry video provides both a macro & microscopic view of the defensive structure.
Byren Meintjes South AfricaThis was actually an eye opener for me as my defense lacked structure. On the last set were the boy’s shifted on the defense line I used a elastic rope tied to straps on the boy’s to help them shift as a unit. it worked like a bomb. Thanks guy’s
