Thanks bros for this wonderful enlightenment, I can make sure my boys are on track while in their training.

Killer explanation for newbies! One suggestion, if I may: at 6:50 you talk of the "scrum half." I now know that's a position worn by the #9 but most newbies, especially American football diehards looking to learn rugby, that don't know the rules are surely not going to know what you meant there.

@alunjprice 6 месяцев назад

The scrum half feeds a the scrum, and the backs from a breakdown or a lineout, but unlike American football, his job is to feed the backs, or maybe make a break if the opposition are not aware, he usually “sweeps” in defence, the quarter back in rugby union is the 10.

Great explanation, well done!

@myribunt5261 2 года назад

Thank you. Super helpful :)

@timjones6255 Год назад

It's a scrummage in rugby union. Scrimmage is the American football term. It's a lineout in rugby, not lineup. A knock-on results in a scrum, not always a penalty - only for a deliberate knock-on. For a robust explanation of the rules of rugby union search Nigel Owens - the best referee.

@taliesinllanfair4338 Год назад

Love Nigel Owens. I agree with your corrections as well.

@ianarnett 3 месяца назад

Actually it is correctly called a scrimmage! The American term is from when they played rugby, before it changed to American Football, so their term is correct.

@timjones6255 3 месяца назад

@@ianarnett I see no spelling using the letter i even when the first rules of rugby were drawn up in 1845, some 20+ years before the first American Football college match was played. If you have any evidence of ‘scrimmage’ written anywhere in the game of rugby prior to 1845 or at all, I would appreciate seeing it.

@ianarnett 3 месяца назад

@timjones6255 I must admit that my quick search concurs with your investigation. So on that basis I must admit also to being wrong. However, when I first played rugby at grammar school, at which rugby was very important, nearly sixty years ago we were all taught it was a scrimmage, not scrummage. I'll investigate further, but unless, and until I find anything to the contrary please accept my apology.

There are 5 ways to score in rugby, try, conversion, penalty, penalty try, and drop kick

@wahbyfar3725 2 месяца назад

3:56, not sure (aka, your wrong) about any injured player being able to be replaced by a previously taken off player. It’s correct for the front row, but incorrect for other players. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be circumstances where a team finished with 14 players, due to injury, which happened in to 2024 6 nations, I can’t recall the game.

@Enpassantful Год назад

Never really watched rugby mainly because I don’t have a clue as to what is going on. This probably explains why football is more popular as a spectator sport.

@dandylion188 9 месяцев назад

What happens if you are awarded a penalty, but you are not close enough to kick it through the uprights?

@hermanuslemmer1695 9 месяцев назад

I believe you kick the ball out of bounds, and where it goes out of bounds is where you get possession.

@ianarnett 3 месяца назад

You have several choices when awarded a penalty. Kick for goal, kick for touch, kick for position (punt it down the field), tap it and run, or a scrum.

I'm just starting rugby union comment advice

@OfficiallyActive Год назад

Try different positions to see which best suit you. Learn the fundamentals tackling, passing and catching, you will thank yourself when you can do it under pressure. Always commit to the tackle and finally don't be scared to ask questions cause there is a lot of rules in rugby

@ianarnett 3 месяца назад

Very useful video, except that Rugby has no rules, it has laws so please amend the name and your commentary. Regrettably , a number of the comments made by people here are incorrect. The laws are involved, just as are the laws of cricket, and many either misunderstand, or simply are ignorant of them.

@kristinpepper2348 Год назад

wtf? so how does the defense get the ball back? There are no downs so the offense can just keep going and going until they score?!?!

@zaneneemia570 Год назад

Defending team has many ways to get the ball back, such as mauls and breakdowns, penalties, scrums and other defensive measures like intercepting passes and blocking kicks. No set amount of downs and plays are required as the line of play is always active on the field. Unless a penalty, injury or referee stoppage occurs then the game clock and line of play is stopped until the referee resumes . You are 100% correct, there are no downs and the team with the ball can keep attacking until they score. However, just like the NFL, once they score, they then have to kick the ball from half field to the other team, and they now become the defending team.

@OfficiallyActive Год назад

Hahaha yeah there is no downs but there's lots of opportunities to steal the ball. like fumbles, rucks and interceptions. Although i would love to know if there has been a game where one team had possession for the majority of the game. 😂

@TheMrPeteChannel Год назад

Occasionally you'll see the equivalent of an NFL interception.

@newremote Год назад

Another point not mentioned by other replies is that there is a lot of what's called tactical kicking. Because there is always a contest for the ball at tackles, rucks etc, a team will often kick into an area downfield where they know the opposition will probably take possession but they can be put under pressure, which can result in a turnover in good field position. Of course the receiving team also has the opportunity to run or kick the ball back. So possession and field position can change quickly.

@FinleyMcB Год назад

That’s the beautify about Union, if you play correctly and have the physicality, you can hold onto the ball until you eventually score. Harder in practise ofc

@alunjprice 6 месяцев назад

Laws, not rules.

@mrloz001 3 месяца назад

had to turn off soon as you mentioned "scrimmages" and "line-ups". No such things in rugby union.

@ianarnett 3 месяца назад

There is a correctly called scrimmage. When I started playing, years ago, my master at school never called the scrum any other name! Line ups, you are correct with being not a thing.
