Week 37
This week we look  at a great "unders" move with the
full-back, coming into the back-line on the outside,
from a scrum.
This move was done in the Currie Cup
match Blue Bulls Vs Cheetahs on 30-09-06 in Pretoria.
"  This must be one of the great modern rugby moves and it work twice in one match. Well planned and well
executed and the most important fact it is from a set piece, the scrum. Naas Botha, ex-Springbok fly-half and now
rugby commentator, always said that for him it is easier to break the line with the forwards in the set piece, than
when the are stringed across the field in a defensive line."

Lets first look at the "unders" pass running line
The fly-half receives the ball from the
scrum-half at a scrum and passes to the
blindside wing coming in. Look at the
two "dummy" running centers.
NOTE: It will take about 30sec.

The blindside wind receives the ball,
with the two "dummy" runners stopping
the inside covering defenders.
Video Clip of the move
The blindside wing starts to drift across
the field committing more defenders.
The full-back comes into the back-line
and receive an "unders" pass from the
blindside wing. Look at defending wing
(yellow) turning around to try and stop
the full-back.

This is a great move when it is done on the outside from a scrum, because there are
enough elements to stop the covering defenders.  
The defenders are too slow and the  
full-back runs through the gap,
They score easily .
