One on One Defence - All with Shane Williams

I give away about 4 or 5 stone to some of the bigger wingers I play against. In this module I'll share with you the tackling technique that has worked for me over 11 years of international rugby. Showing you how to use an attackers momentum to bring them to the ground, stay on top of them and execute turnovers.

Course reviews

This is another of the must-share videos. Simple strategies and executions really build confidence within the team. These are the insights being shared player-to-player during training. Great to see.

Netherlands

Nice drill!

Uruguay

Great technique I used it today to prepare my U19 team for High School playoffs.. Thank you for sharing

USA

Sometimes the things that come naturally to an experienced player are succinctly and helpfully broken down into coachable parts. This is what this great little video does.

Belgium

A real confidence builder for all young players, both big and small. Extremely clear.

England

buen recurso para tacklear,ponerse de pie y pescar

Argentina

This is a great technique. especially for smaller blokes up against big players.

Papua New Guinea

Great vid by a MACHINE Defender. The only caution is to watch for lazy/tired defenders to use legs to “trip” tackle.

USA

bueno

Argentina

muy bueno

Argentina

Really like it! It will be very useful

Great Britain & Northern Ireland

ALL videos keep closing off after 2.30 secs? Is there an issue here?

Ireland

excellent! – really clear explanation and demonstration.

England

realmente da resultado muy bueno

Argentina

Great technique, :-)

Australia

While it focuses on just one technique for tackling, it’s incredibly useful for how to use that one technique. As a smaller player myself I’ve watched it a few times and used the technique this weekend on player twice my size who tried to fend me off, needless to say he was quite shocked when he was on the ground and was turning over the ball. Thanks for the technique.

Canada

MUY BUEN RECURSO

Argentina

It’s short. And it’s really about just one technique: Shane’s preferred method for tackling runners who use the fending arm (as well as getting into position post-tackle). But that technique is helpful and is well illustrated in the practice examples.

USA

Great video,tackling an attacker that has a good fend is very hard for some young players, I will definitely use Shane’s video for my U13s teams.
