  1. (offensive strategy) as a winger i found out that making your opponent chase you at full speed is a great way to make him get of balance. so when you are running at full speed near the line you should make the defenders come at you with full speed. and when they are at that point where they are fully concentrated at trying to catch up to you, that’s the moment where you should step. as they are coming at full speed its hard to stop as you do it. so making your opponent go full speed and then finding a gap where you can step is a good strategy i found useful as a winger.

    if you want examples you can go watch Kolbe’s highlights, i found him doing it many times , and as we know Kolbe is a fantastic winger. just make sure you don’t lose any speed because that make’s you a very easy target.

    good luck!

  2. Just found out at practice tonight that I gonna be playing 11 when our season starts. Thanks for the tips and tricks!!!

  3. I’m new to rugby and I’m playing my second game tomorrow as a winger. I’m slightly worried bc I’m not very fast yet

  4. Get good at kicking for touch and chase the ball to put pressure on the fullback/ wing .
    Look in to Aussie rules football to be good under the high ball.
    If your wing is quite just pretend to be a flanker get your hands on the ball

  5. Thank you for your videos my son has just been given his no. as 11 for u12’s and has been told to find research and your video was spot on so BIG THANK YOU

  6. Nice vid, I’ve found chatting to my centres and agreeing to stay on our feet we can create mauls. Opposition backs and wingers are NOT maul specialists so you can often get an extra 5, 10, 20 yards before they know what’s happened. The 1st arriving player can bind quite low around the hips/waist and the maul will almost jog along. If they’re clumsy and bring it down accidentally or try and "finish their tackle", it’s a pen to you

  7. Thanks lad just started playing rugby after playing football my whole life. I am the tallest in my team and i have been playing as a centre/winger.

  8. absolute loved this, can yoiu make a video about how to improve as a full back???

  9. Hiya. I’ve got a question I’m new to rugby. I’ve attended a training and was told that a winger follows an inside/ outside centre depending where they are.

  10. Thanks for the tip RugbySlate I’m looking forward to play rugby union next year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  11. The Defence at 1.09 (dropping off to prevent the clean break) is known as jockeying, a common term in 7s rugby especially.

  12. Well explained loved it! As a winger this is could be very useful information to tear up your game and adding examples and animation really helps to understand more easily and have a look closely at what professionals are doing, if you are not a rugby coach you should be as you can help a lot. Keep up the great work! 😊❀

  13. depending upon on the level/size of player Kicking: long,chips and grubbers, Defense: learning to tackle in akward position not just face to face, multi tasking like villere did, Eg playing halfback

  14. Nice video mate, iM following you on Instagram, I already enjoy it, I’ll try to get the style, by the way I feel like chesley is my style … But baout the defence is what I have to correct

  15. Brilliant video. I’m a forward but I found this helpful insight into what my wingers are doing!

  16. Love the positioning part. Been playing for years and never considered a few of your tips. Cheers mate !!
