Can we get the full presentation of Mexted’s classroom on loose forwards? I noticed he had a nice slide presentation with the roles of the loose forwards. I often played blind and open, but would like to see what his full assessment is on all three loose forwards.

USA

Excellent. Best set of progressive passing drills I’ve seen. Thanks Dave.

Australia

amazing clearness!

Italy

Some really good ideas, all new and very technical.

England

Súper cuando viene la traducción en español ????

Germany

For me the game is about body movement and depending on what and how we do it will determine the outcome. Great session from Rodney highlighting some of the ways this impacts on our breakdown skills

Great Britain & Northern Ireland

Excellent tips on controlling your body and very effective tecniques at the ruck.

South Africa

Nice! I’ve never seen that technique before. Can’t wait to put it out to the guys in training and see how they do!
