‘It’s like catching the fatties out at training’

Brian O’Driscoll teamed up with injured Harlequins out-half Nick Evans on BT Sport’s Rugby Tonight to deliver another brilliant masterclass on the show’s demo pitch.

The duo covered phase plays and discussed how the best teams (Bath were highlighted as a good example) have multiple options for distributors, such as out-halves and scrum-halves.

Highlights of the latest masterclass include Evans and O’Driscoll tricking Matt Dawson and the former Ireland centre describing his forward colleagues as ‘fatties’.
