Oh yeah woops =P
Fly-half/centre... Was thinking also probably more on the lines of running/stepping skill drills because we don't really have the time to do a lot of that at training. But if you've got any good ideas on what two guys could do to improve handling as well, that'd be sweet... not just like passing it back and forth cause it doens't really have any impact on actual game play imo (eg can easily throw long passes when under no pressure already, need some kind of way to make it more like a game).
EDIT: Also thanks a lot Will that's the kind of ideas I'm looking for.

flyhalf and center-
on your own you can practise your kicking alot, tactical and for poles... other things that you could do are things like agility ladders with ball then pass it, be creative, there is lots you can do...
p.s. sit on the couch and watch rugby watch what the player in your position does and evalute and formulate how you can take his positive attributes and apply them to your game... this is very underestimated:-)....

Well I have got a few SAQ skills that you can do... you dont need ladders or anything jsut a few bottles/cones. I will write it down a bit later.
What weight routines are people using? I am doing alot of olly lifts and few positional exercises.
Only one game left of the season. We ran rings around 3rd place yesterday. It was a great feeling. They beat us 35-0 first time we played them and yesterday we stuff them and they said it was thier strongest team. We have now stopped them from promotion this year. Which feels even better. We are currently in 5th place and only just got promoted in to this league last year.
What standard of rugby do you guys play?

I suppose my team could be said to be... above average, we beat a lot of teams, but we rarely challenge for the cup (the way its organised in my county, there's a big tournament at the end of the year, beginning with mini-leagues of 4 teams, the top going into the cup, the second going to the plate and the bottom to the bowl), although last season we were one point off the semi-final (where Blackheath would have slaughtered us).
This year the standard has improved a lot and so I would say we are maybe top 15-20 in the county, not that great really but we are on the up. Won the plate at a 7s tournament today comfortably.
I have ambitions to play for the county this year or next, looking likely to be next as I have a few issues with my game as well as deciding what position I want to play =P

Sounds good. i take it that it is kids rugby not mens? I know it is all different set ups all over th world.
At the moment i play for a mens team that is quite good, as i said 4leagues off premship rugby, so if we hopefully get promotiom next year we will start to get paid ?100 a game. Which is not bad at all.
i got called up for my county this year to go back and play u21's and also had south west england trials but dint manage to get through, as i work fukll time and cant get to all the training and also cant do enough personal training.
Im also playing for a few teams that repersent the city etc... hard to explain./

Yeah under16s atm. Probably will play some men's rugby next year when I'm 17 (I hate that rule half my team could get into the 3rd/4ths/5ths and not suffer more than in a tough game of u16s). Had a Kent trial a couple of years ago, made it through the first round but never made it anywhere since... but this summer I'm going to do some proper work. Shame about the not having enough training time, guess us kids don't realise how lucky we are! 9 week summer holiday this year What position do you play at?
I've only just started to get serious about the conditioning side of rugby, cause I managed to get along in previous seasons but now this year its all got a little bit more serious and suddenly 16 stone ripped tanks are turning up all the place. But this summer (starting properly after my exams), my plan is to start Rippetoes until I've got some barbell experience (currently: about 6 gym sessions lol), with either sprinting or rugby practice or hey maybe even both on days off.

Played rep at schoolboys and U19, then Premier Grade in Brisbane for 5 years (I haven't retired but giving the body a rest). Coached schools, club and uni teams for 8 years, now my primary job Also worked for a S14 franchise.
Actually considering an offer to coach (and possibly play) in Canada for a 1-3 years, something I've wanted to do and weighing up whether the time is right and which offer to take up. With one of the offers I could essentially become a full-time coach/athlete which would be pretty sweet.
