You mean like Dagg's try last year against Australia?

Not sure if this counts as it's more of a set move but easier to show than describe.

More often passed out after. Expect to see plenty of it this summer especially with the no look return from BO'D.

Nice. Although good tackling should normally take of that

Not really about the tackling though. What it's doing is creating space. The person being passed to can break if defenders look past him expecting the loop, 10 can break if defenders look to the outside or it's passed with an overlap possibly being created. Another variation is to have someone outside the player receiving the ball so that when he goes to pass behind to 10 he actually passes to a hard runeer ala D'arcy's try vs Wasps which I can't find. It looks limited but you'd be surprised how often it works and teams know it's coming.

It's a great try if you ignore the horrendous blocking which creates the gap in the first place. Not that I'm still smarting from that little trip to Cardiff...

It's not horrendus blocking it worked...

 

[ratsapprentice]

The one where Manu creates a massive gap/overlap as a decoy runner, with people in position to take advantage of said gap, but then you pass it to him anyway... it really confuses the opposition!

 

[SelimNiai]

The Sexton Loop., as Feic puts it, is a thing of beauty when executed properly. My personal fave, if it can be called a set move, was the Gibbs Wembley one.

Immense

That try thanks to the complicated set move putting into space or was it just a simple missed tackle?

 

[Draggs]

Inside ball from standoff to wing.
Saw James and Russell execute one two years back and had to rewatch it too many times. Simple, but when timed right the wing is in full flight and just cruises onto the ball.
