| The scrumhalf puts the ball into the scrum. |
| The fullback passes then to the blindside wing to score. |
The advantage of the move is that the opposing scrum-half is out of the defending equation and by putting an extra attacker , in this case the full-back, onto the blindside, the necessary space is created for the wing. |

| This week we show our coaches a blindside move from a scrum,which we call "The crusader 3 move ". For this move to succeed the scrum must be on the right hand side of the field. |
| " This move was first invented by the late Kitch Christie, an old mate of mine and the 1995 Wold Cup winning coach. This move works on the principle that the defending scrumhalf is out of this defending equation, because he is on the other side of the scrum."- Jan Oberholzer |

Prefered position of the move
This move can only be done from a scrum
on the right hand side with a big blindside.
The reason is that one of the main
defenders at a scrum, the scrumhalf, is
then out of the defending equation.
