Topic: reiterating the importance of a ‘direct’ inside centre, with some statistical analysis.
This essay highlights nothing new, nor reveals any new information. It merely regurgitates age-old rugby wisdom, which is beginning to be lost in Australian rugby.
To win in rugby you must get 'front-foot ball' in the opposition's half. In order to achieve this, you must kick effectively and consistently break the advantage line.
The former is discussed to death and I do not think I can contribute meaningfully. Therefore, this post will discuss how to consistently break the advantage line.
The breaks don't have to be huge. In fact, it is better if they aren’t, as huge breaks often lead to isolated ball. The breaks must be just enough so that the opposition forwards must run around 'the gate'. This delay in the contest of the breakdown is what creates quick ball. Thus, denying the opposition the opportunity to realign in defence. If performed well this spiral of attack will inevitably lead to a try, or a kickable penalty as the opposition attempts to slow the ball.
In order to break the advantage line consistently, there must be strong ball carriers spread across the park, with pods of forwards ready to support the targeted carrier.
I often feel that many people overrate the ability of an “exciting”, “dynamic” and “X-factor”-riddled backline. As we have all seen with Australia in the past few years, Quade, Kurtley, O’Connor, Mitchell and Ashley-Cooper will be relatively ineffective unless they have front-foot ball and space created for them.
I often think that a rugby playmaker can learn a lot from Glenn McGrath. The great bowler used to figure out the relative weaknesses of his opposition and then trap them by exposing those weaknesses. For almost an entire spell, he would bowl exactly the same delivery. Then he would pitch a seemingly identical ball, but would move it subtlety either way. This is exactly what a rugby playmaker must do.
Therefore, for every “X-factor”-oozing player, that fans seem to drool over, there must be someone who is able to run good lines; hard, straight and fast. Whilst, it is true that many players are sometimes able to ‘create something from nothing’, games cannot consistently be won on this philosophy, and simply cramming a team full of players who are able to do so is a recipe for disaster.
Therefore, in my opinion, every backline needs two players who are able to fulfill this ‘ball-carrying’ role. These players consistently break tackles, to the extent that the opposition defender is forced to plant their feet in anticipation of the oncoming runner. It is this, planting of the fleet, which creates the space for the other backs to make the decisive breach of the opposition line.
To illustrate, one of the most successful moves is the “butter”. Initially, 12 and 13 will ‘line up’ their opposition number by running fast, straight lines and yelling for the ball. When 10 catches it, they ‘break’ by dramatically changing angles, with 12 going left and 13 right. Thus, dragging their defenders with them. Meanwhile, the blindside winger, comes from behind the ruck and receives the ball in the centre channel left vacant. We call is butter because of how easily it spreads them. However, in order for it to work, we run the same move in the phases leading up, but with the 12 receiving the ball on the inside line. Thus highlighting the importance of preparing the opposition to exploit their weaknesses.
The two backs that fulfill this role must be separated by position, for example they cannot both be centres. One must be an inside centre, and the other should be a winger.
A significant factor for Australia’s disappointing performances over the past years has been the lack of such players. The lack is partly due to selections, but mostly because Australia does not seem to have a powerful carrier such as those, which occupy most no.12 jerseys around the World.
Using FoxSports, I prepared, and attached, a few statistics based on this Super rugby season. I purposely choose a range of different styles of centres and a disproportionate number of Australian players.
To summarise, the statistics highlight the relative effectiveness of McCabe and Cummins’ carriers, while the opposite for Tom Carter.
To conclude, Australia lacks a dominant inside centre. Whilst, McCabe is the best we have, he is nowhere near as good as his international counterparts, nor is he arguably good enough to deny O’Connor or Barnes a place in the team. An ironic solution lies in the fact that Australia dominants another sport which is almost entirely made up of these type of players. Therefore I propose, as a short-term remedy, the ARU ‘poaches’ a few young (no big head-line names!) from the dark side. Whilst I am no League expert, Moga; Blair; Kam and Satini would all fit the mould.

This essay highlights nothing new, nor reveals any new information. It merely regurgitates age-old rugby wisdom, which is beginning to be lost in Australian rugby.
To win in rugby you must get 'front-foot ball' in the opposition's half. In order to achieve this, you must kick effectively and consistently break the advantage line.
The former is discussed to death and I do not think I can contribute meaningfully. Therefore, this post will discuss how to consistently break the advantage line.
The breaks don't have to be huge. In fact, it is better if they aren’t, as huge breaks often lead to isolated ball. The breaks must be just enough so that the opposition forwards must run around 'the gate'. This delay in the contest of the breakdown is what creates quick ball. Thus, denying the opposition the opportunity to realign in defence. If performed well this spiral of attack will inevitably lead to a try, or a kickable penalty as the opposition attempts to slow the ball.
In order to break the advantage line consistently, there must be strong ball carriers spread across the park, with pods of forwards ready to support the targeted carrier.
I often feel that many people overrate the ability of an “exciting”, “dynamic” and “X-factor”-riddled backline. As we have all seen with Australia in the past few years, Quade, Kurtley, O’Connor, Mitchell and Ashley-Cooper will be relatively ineffective unless they have front-foot ball and space created for them.
I often think that a rugby playmaker can learn a lot from Glenn McGrath. The great bowler used to figure out the relative weaknesses of his opposition and then trap them by exposing those weaknesses. For almost an entire spell, he would bowl exactly the same delivery. Then he would pitch a seemingly identical ball, but would move it subtlety either way.

To conclude, Australia lacks a dominant inside centre. Whilst, McCabe is the best we have, he is nowhere near as good as his international counterparts, nor is he arguably good enough to deny O’Connor or Barnes a place in the team. An ironic solution lies in the fact that Australia dominants another sport which is almost entirely made up of these type of players. Therefore I propose, as a short-term remedy, the ARU ‘poaches’ a few young (no big head-line names!) from the dark side. Whilst I am no League expert, Moga; Blair; Kam and Satini would all fit the mould.
