I'm coaching an inexperienced youth side and at the post-tackle the BC may not get a deep set of the ball. This makes it vulnerable to getting jackled.
I'm considering coaching the first arriving BC support player to get over the ball then move it, by hand, to under his hind foot before any ops are there to contest. Yes, I know that technically they can/should be rucking with their feet but that can be destabilizing. They would not be picking it up, just pushing it back to the hind foot.
Thoughts on this? It seems to me that this would be OK prior to an op engaging.
