[QUOTE="Los Lover, post: 20665"] Grubbers are great! Pick your moment and hold them longer.... More Tips = * Spend ten minutes on scrimmage on Practise mode - it's worth it.....you just free play against another team and you can try a few things out. * the defence likes to keep a line - so you can jog or run your moves at times - what I mean is this: you DON"T have to have a finger on sprint the whole time! Trust me, when I say (as does the tip in the instruction booklet) that changing from run to sprint well timed and even combined with a step etc...is more effective than zooming everywhere b/c the defense zooms with you - just like real life. * Alter the squads of the teams you play against and with.....This takes only a couple of minutes....by swapping the best players or correct players in the My Rugby menu so that their strongest line-ups are represented......some wings in the Super 12 for example are not up to scratch but some of the replacements are devastating... EG - The Chiefs have Randle on the bench - 96 speed. Ouch. I like testing myself against the likes of his gas. * Rucks are not random and they are easy to follow - people playing sideview, in which the ball itself is clearly seen will understand this. The instructions are also v accurate in terms of what's going on in there...... What!? You think the winger loses it every time and that's unfair!? I say, no way mate....in rugby when you hit the deck isolated the opposition has all rights to the ball - goota release. the rule is perfect. Sooooo......continue the move i.e. pass back in-field, or grubber ahead, chip, bomb, OR pull a special move step/fend.barge etc...into the tackle - this buys you a second (like real life) and allows the forwards a chance to catch up....will lose the ball 50% less than you are. * TIP - when you make a break that isn't going to net an individual try - slow down!!! There's nothing wrong with looking for support and buying yourself a second. * When throwing it freestyle out the backline....feel free to go from the first five BACK the other way to your winger running an inside line and then have him pass BACK to the first-five again who has now drifted wider naturally and then go from him to your backline - can create deviations in their defensive pattern and free up your outsides easier too.... * scrums can be turned and twisted - don't be so shy on that analogue stick.
