on 8/2/2008 Very poor. No explination of this basic / poor technique whatsoever and headgear has nothing to do with kicking for goal so why did you mention it at all?

Video Transcript

"My name is Pat Ryerson and I play lock for the Missoula All-Maggots. I’m just out here I’m going to explain a little bit about set kicks, kicking for points, and also my scrum cap, which likes to cover my ears, so my ears don’t get ripped off. That’s quite essential in rugby. No, it’s actually just so I do not ruck burns and a minor padding for myself. So going through a set kick, I like to kick up the ground. So usually, what I do is dig my heel in the ground. Place the ball at pretty much a 90-degree angle from the ground. I usually take three steps back, one back, two over. I look at the post because I’m trying to make it in between the two goal posts. I come up to the ball. All I’m trying to do is focus, plant my foot and make contact right about here. A little demonstration here, I will do a quick one. "
