    Note:
    Advantage of the move:
    This move is designed for the
    running scrum-half to shield the
    straight running runner from the
    first defender.  This is a great move
    to do within ten meters from the
    opponents try-line and it
    is nearly impossible to stop the big
    forward who is receiving the pass.
The scrumhalf breaks away in the first
channel.
The first channel defender is too late
to stop the runner.
The scrumhalf gives a short pass to
the runner.
Note how the first channel defender
must follow him on his inside
The execution of the drill
" Many teams are now using variations of this short pass move to score when they have a ruck near the oppositions try-line. The
important part of the move is that the scrum-half breaks away and draws the first defenders and then gives a short pass to a
player running in with a straight running line and who scores by using his momentum."   - Jan Oberholzer
This  week we show our coaches a move in which an attacking team uses a running scrumhalf and an outside runner to attack
the first channel near the oppositions tryline, called   "The scrumhalf running in the first channel move"
We look at "The scrumhalf running in the first channel move".   .
