If you were here, we'd go through a few playbooks.'"


Whose playbooks?

Quote: Cronus "Wrong.

I attended a closed coaching seminar with a current top SL coach about 3 weeks ago. He showed us how he uses video footage to examine and dissect playsDo you think teams make up their plays and sets on the spot, or have scripted, oft-practised sets and plays?'"



This is not always as it seems. I attended a seminar with Tony Smith (and yes I have played and have been coaching for twelve years) and he stated that Warrington do not practice attacking set plays as he trusts the players to solve the problem of how to score on the field and to play what they see. However, this is an elite, experienced group of players so it does make it easier to allow that to happen. When dealing with less talented players a set move or even a full scripted set of six (for an example an exit set) might be needed.

The one thing that is utterly rigid in execution is the defensive structure.

Quote: Starbug "This line of discussion started because of a comment by a commentator/pundit, so if you didnt hear it, and it would seem you didnt read my initial post, you havent a clue what you are arguing about

Not very clever are you?'"


I know what was said and I read your original post. More evasion.

Is that relevant?
Northampton RL, although most of it knicked from a combination of Broncos, Keighley, Whitehaven and Hull KR.

So you didnt write them?

But I assume you have read them?

So in an ' exit ' , ' safety ' , ' break out from line ' set what specific instructions do you give to your half backs/full back/hooker and loose forward?

Some I wrote (one each year for my team) and others from club coaches coaching the other teams in the club. Instructions to each and every player vary in each set. Why do you ask?

Quote: Starbug "" Scoring is not the priority " What Clarke actually said was that Huddersfield’s focus should not be on scoring – that they should be capable of scoring 10 points in the remainder of the game and should not concede any more. As this comment was made when Warrington had just forced a goal line drop out at 24-16 up it seems to me to be eminently sensible to be focussing on not conceding any more points

As it happens, the Giants did repel that attack and then straight away another set of 6 from another forced goal line drop out and then went in to score themselves to take the game to 24-22 with 7 minutes remaining

While the Giants did not go on to win the game, the comment by Clarke to focus on defence and keep themselves in the game was very sensible (as you would expect from a former Great Britain captain)

It’s a pity that 15 pages of debate stemmed from this miss quote
