Lesson 1
In order to advance the ball don't be a stupid doffdoos running around the place. You will get into gaps and then how the hell are your support going to stop turnovers. Don't be isolated.
Lesson 2
Crashballing is another stupid doffdoos tactic that can be problematic with regards to getting the ball to the outside backs. Once you stop doffdoosing the ball like a dinosaur you need to get over the gainline but that's easy because you will be crabbing like hell to gas the drift on the outside.
Lesson 3
Offloading is very important because I read the word on a coaching site once. You got to not be a doffdoos doosdoffing around when you totally am aren't taking contact with crashdoos tactics. If requires that you don't go down in the tackle that didn't happen because you won't be creating opportunities for the support you are running towards. If your attack looks like this you are on the right track:
The above is the "exhaust" attack pattern because you are exhausting yourself running into perpetually open space. Note they are attacking the inside shoulder which is the key weakness in the drift defense.
Tune in next week for how not to be a doffdoos kicking the ball because you want to run the ball only and not be one dimensional.
