The key to Cruden’s offloads in the tackle is the fact that he never takes the tackler straight on. He always makes a quick step off line as he goes into contact. He hit the defenders inside shoulder with his inside shoulder. That way he can get is other hand around the defender to offload.
Lots of kicking now
Brumbies scrum has improved much
Nice speed into the ball resulting in a try.
Try Fardy, Brumbies!

Wow nice try by chiefs. Notice how the winger just steps off line before he goes into contact. Allows him to offload.
