[QUOTE="DC, post: 104155"] So today at rugby we finally got our first taste of outdoor rugby, the favourable weather finally permitted us to go outside and play. So, we had a 15 v 15 scrimmage for a majority of practice and i couldn't get any clean ball at all. A player would go to ground and they would either, lose it in the tackle, toss it back (thus making it scoot along the ground) instead of placing it. Also our forewards werent rucking particularly well and they would sometimes kick the ball, or get blown off it. My major gripe is that i couldnt really string it out at all today, not only did i rarely get clean ball but a majority of the time i'd be digging in the ruck getting the ball out and one of my forewards would be blown off the ball and pushed right into me, thus causing me to be off balance or knocked down by them falling on me. I guess its natural for the moment considering some of these guys have only been playing for a year or two, but i was wondering what i could do to during training so that i can get the ball better even though there is a lack of decent rucking and clean ball? So needless to say i didnt quite have my best training session ever and its absolutely killing me inside, i have been saying its the forewards fault really, but i don't like having a bad day in anything, i like to look good always, gahhh.
