[QUOTE="Gay-Guy, post: 120428"] If you pick and go from the ruck and have someone who knows how to mark then you are pretty much stuffed with this move. One effective way to get past the ruck with the halfback is to pick....try and take a step back....then push grubber....it will catapult you past the ruck (yes you will go right through the ruck!). On defence with the technique that has you powering up by doing circles then catapulting yourself forward to fly at the first five (the SJRL defensive style) it may put pressure on the first five but a good player can beat this defence easily. Hot potato missouts, quick takeoffs, sharp steps, inside balls on red moves, twinkle toes, etc can put an end to someone rushing up. The key is to look at the D-line and the A-lines when you rush and knowing whether to stay on line, drift out, pull back and sweep, or hold. The kick from the ruck is best effective if you do it invisibly so the opponent does not see the blue arrow. Even better to do it if the fullback has made the tackle previously and is at the bottom of the ruck and you can see your opponent did not select a defensive pattern to get someone else at the back but is instead doing something stupid like making circles to power up and rush the first five....with your loosies in the ruck the invisible kick will have you first five (faster than a loosie) steam after the chip kick and pick up the ball with no one around! Forwards running off the ruck and Inside balls are good if your opponent is slow marking up on them...because this can be killed quite easily if your opponent decides to early tackle the forward recieving it from the halfback. Setting the fly half off can be good when you want the defence to engage and not drift....but if the rush your first five then it can be suicidal as soon as he recieves the ball. Sorry if it sounds like I am a kill joy....just trying to help with things and possiblities to fix them up :) [/QUOTE]
