The main roles of the dummy half or acting half are to either pass or run the football. The dummy half pass should be a well executed pass off the ground as this is the quickest way to get the ball to the intended receiver.

At times if the dummy half feels the defending markers are pressuring the receiver too much, he may wish to stand, take a step or two and commit the markers to him before passing.

Dummy half running follows two basic lines. Arc running and straight line running.

Running the arc is a relatively low risk play and best performed by the faster players in the team and should be used when the markers are set.

Straight line running should be used after a quick play the ball when the defending markers are not correctly in position.

The dummy half should pick up the ball and run straight ahead, take the easy yards and then assess the next option.

The advantage line is the imaginary line running across the field between the ball and the marker.

This line indicates if the attack is moving forward, if the next tackled performed is beyond the line it is closer to the try line so the advantage is to the attacking team.

Key factors which determine good advantage line running are timing of the play the ball, the dummy half pass plus the width, speed and line of the ball receiver.

Receivers need to have an understanding of the power and speed of the dummy half pass so.....Receive four  DVD's and a hard copy RLCM  Coachtalk Book each month.
