Alastair, completes the series by challenging the players’ decision making and technique under pressure with positive results. Get off the line and meet the attacker. Self awareness of your skill execution. Positive effective tackle = unstable attacker.

Love the knees exercise, fun but informative
Simple, quick, effective.
Very well done progression, new things to add to my coaching, thank you.
Very good will use this preseason.
These basic fundamentals of tackling will help players loose the uncertainties About attacking.therefore happening in the come more confident the tackling. And my day 80s 90s The text Leean Coach is that I had Nat did not have the signs of this down
Excellent tackle videos and great use of the phone camera as an aid. The best part of this series is Alistair himself and his approach. Like many coaches on the Rugby Site he is calm, quiet and projects a positive and knowledgeable approach to the subject matter. Finally his challenging of the players in a non confrontational but constructive way is superb. A lesson to be learned in itself.
Great video on the tackle. The technique is good and broken down very well. good build up to an end result of a confidence in the tackle.
Ottima precisazione sulla modalità d’intervento nel placcaggio.
like the emphasis on simple “knee bending” drill …… applies to so many aspects of game and so many young players have difficulty doing it consistently
Great repetition for second nature positioning
