#29 Attacking Rugby | Sam Vesty & Dan Biggar Break Down England & Modern Attacks

The Rugby Pod

Former England and Leicester player, and now one of the most coveted attack coaches in the game, Sam Vesty joins Bigs for a deep dive into the state of modern attacking rugby. The lads give their take on England’s misfiring attack and kicking strategy, why they’re struggling to convert chances in the 22, and whether confidence or system is the bigger issue. Vesty also talks about player connections in coaching, the impact of Premiership rugby on international readiness, and the growing trend of utility backs in the modern game. From Ireland’s layered attacking shape to Scotland’s impressive Six Nations form and France’s apparent chaos that somehow produces magic, the conversation breaks down what makes the best attacks tick. Bigs and Rob also take a look at the final round of Six Nations and preview what promises to be a nervous day with the Championship and Wooden Spoon up for grabs.
