[QUOTE="Rigo, post: 384641, member: 49162"] I am playing as third row and really like it, I can tackle fairly good and advance several meters with the ball before I get dropped. However, when it comes to tackle the biggest guy on the other team, or try to stop a pick-go from the other team or just fly into a ruck with a "I weight 130 kilos" mentality, I find myself losing strength right at the last second before I crash with someone. My coach says that its normal and its called "fear to contact" and that I have to work to minimize it as much as possible. Those of you who play or have been through this, what do you do to become more aggressive? Any suggestions or opinions are welcome :) [/QUOTE]
