You'll never win against skilled teams until you ingrain the information encompassed by "Total Rugby". If you're ready for advance tactics and strategy, check out "Think Rugby" by the same author.. Paolo Diaz said Best book out there. 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.

Total Rugby" has become one of the game's most seminal coaching manuals - it highlights Jim Greenwood's radical examination of every facet of the game and his ability to clearly convey the wealth of knowledge he has accumulated over many years. Total rugby is the antithesis of play-safe rugby - an open, ebullient game in which every player is encouraged to show what he can do as an attacker, defender and supporting player. This fifth edition has been thoroughly updated and expanded."
