Interesting graphic showing average minutes players in @premrugby by position
Looking at the detail, could you ascertain the substitution plan by team? 🤔
A couple things stand out about this:
- Razor is a great choice
But process wise,
- Might be the first time a successor was named ahead of the incumbent finishing out a season
- NZRU may not have notified Foster before the announcement

I am considering running a Defence themed two part webinar series on ‘Building A Pressure Focussed Defence’
If this would be of interest please could you answer the following questions to help me gather some insight in to the mechanics. 1/
This is what a coach sounds like — a teacher. Andre Patterson is a home run hire for the Giants.
Key factor in developing Everson Griffen and Danielle Hunter 🔥
The definition of coaching 👇
🗣"The best coaching is where one sets up the environment to allow the players to develop this instinctive style rather than trying to 'teach' the game academically."
I posted this on FB in 2009. I literally started coaching a week before and if this wasn’t the universe telling me I needed to change because I had to be the example I wanted to see in my players moving forward…
Preparation ➡️ Performance
Complex skill execution is critical in big moments. Developing coordination, body awareness, safe rolling mechanics and strength in unfamiliar positions takes time and has to be trained in the right environment.
Testing a theory that if you have a semi organized, structured session where people can drop in or out, that they’ll choose to join the activity after not being pressured.
Come TRY RUGBY! We will be holding a FUN session tomorrow from 5-7 pm at the Recreation Fields at 600 25th Ave SE.
Bring a water bottle, clothes to run around in, and running shoes or cleats
No obligation, just come see if you like the sport.

Phil Jackson on what really matters👇
🗣"Obsessing about winning is a losers game. The best we can hope for is to create the best possible conditions for success, then let go of the outcome... Have the courage to grow as human beings as well as players."
In 2018, I started using a games based approach in my coaching. I believe this has helped our @UofMRugby players grow their rugby instincts.
It wasn’t an easy adjustment for me coming from the traditional American coaching mentality. Highly recommend making the switch though.
