Summary: Best book out there
Review: Great, great book. Both for the new rugby player and the old hand. Only criticism I have is that more illustrations and diagrams would be helpful for the total newbie. However, since that wasn't the intended audience it only becomes a problem because there's nothing else comparable out there. Like the Bible, everytime you read it, you learn something new every time. Or something that you weren't ready to understand before becomes suddenly clear. A must-have for the rugby obsessed.

Summary: A great book
Review: I've been playing rugby for almost 6 years, and I wish I read this book earlier. While I think this book is a lot more useful for coaches than for players, it is still a great reference- for example, diagrams outlining the best way to drive in a scrum, explanations of drift defense- all important stuff, and he also goes into detail about what each position should do- which is great for beginners, who are often out there not understanding their roles. Being a passionate rugger, I finished this book in one day!

Summary: A great reference book for all ruggers
Review: Mr. Greenwood has all the basics in here, and it serves as a useful reference beginners wanting to get the basics of the game down, to more experienced ruggers who want to read up on strategy and training tactics.

Summary: Buy this one
Review: This is a great book. It's has tons of valuable information. Not for the guy who loves pictures. Your coaches and captains should have this book. It will make you a better coach, and improve the quality of your club's play. If you want to keep losing, but have the best parties, get some other book.Bob
