Awesome compilation of some of the greatest skills ever seen in rugby

BY Grant Constable  ·  Tuesday Jan 5, 2016

While we may all have slightly different reasons for loving rugby – often due to our body types and the positions we play – there’s one thing that we all respect and enjoy: Great Skill. Some are born with it, others honed it after years of hard work, but we all love seeing it. 

The video below is a well made compilation featuring some brilliant moments from the game we all love. A lot of the clips have been featured here on Rugbydump over the years but they really are worth seeing again, and there are certainly some new ones that you might not have seen before.

One of the most recent examples is the great bit of offloading from both Owen Farrell and Chris Ashton for Saracens a few weeks back, and there are also a few RWC 2015 clips included.

Some of the most skillful players of the modern era feature strongly, with the likes of Quade Cooper, Sonny Bill Williams, Juan Martin Hernadez and Brian O’Driscoll all showing up on more than one occasion.

[You might notice that there are two or three rugby league clips in there, but when you see them you’ll definitely appreciate why]

While you may not agree with the music choice, there’s no doubting the fact that this is a fantastic collection of rugby skill, and one that you should definitely share with your friends, family and teammates. Enjoy, and here’s looking forward to more outstanding bits of play in 2016!
