[QUOTE="Gay-Guy, post: 12921"] Try the injury ones. If you are in the backline from a ruck or maul (and it is taking a while for the forwards to get it out) and planning to cut in or hit the ball on the burst...........go to ground (take a knee) and clutch your chest as if you have some serious chest injury and makes sure you are kinda looking at the ground. When you sense the ball has come out spring to your feet and run straight at a gap. Either you may get the ball (in this case you are already halfway into a gap) or you will put off the defence (as they are now trying to re-adjust to your miraculous recovery). Or they will feel for a split second a slight bit guilty tackling an injured player. Don't believe me that this works? Well next time you are in the defensive backline and you see some attacker on the ground injured then YOU TRY and mark him. Good chance you won't. Lots of other fake injury tricks (going to the sideline with dislocated shoulder only to catch the ball and become the flying winger, crouching alone as a hurt defender only to leap forward from that advantageous position for a crunching tackle, winger crouching injured near the tryline while the centre runs AROUND him to the corner only to pass it back infield to him).
