Wayne Bennett

RLCM 'Everyday' Coaching Quote
" The first two questions most coaches will ask when they are looking at a possible recruit are, what is his attitude like and, is he coachable?
"By coachable they mean will he listen and is he prepared to learn?"
Chris Fullarton from his article 'Qualities Required by the Junior Player' which appeared in RLCM Book 26

EXTRACT FROM RLCM BOOK 25
COACHING WITH COMPUTERS
With David Perry - written by Ashley Bradnam
The advent of video has revolutionized the way the game is analysed. Most NRL coaches spend countless hours each week perched firmly in front of the box, searching to exploit opposition team's weaknesses and looking to rectify their own.
With the advancement and society acceptance of computers, Rugby League
statistics looks set to go through a similar uprising.
David Perry is a rare combination half rugby league fanatic, half computer whiz. As a player David spent three years with Parramatta during the 1980's, managing to reach First Grade before retiring to the NSW central coast where he began coaching.
In 2002, David will be in charge of the Erina Under 17's, dividing his time between the training paddock and the computer screen, where he works full time as a computer programmer. The dual interest has lead David to the creation of an application program aimed at making the collection and analysis of game statistics easier.
"I basically just wanted to make things easier for myself', says David. `the old pen and paper method of collecting the statistics is antiquated, time consuming and can be eliminated by someone with a basic knowledge of Excel macros. Microsoft Excel spreadsheets provide a simple vessel for storing data and an extension of this for people more familiar with computer software is to store this spreadsheet information in a Microsoft Access database. The amount and type of data stored in these databases is almost endless.'
The beauty of introducing a sytem similar to David's is that you will begin securing knowledge which normally wouldn't show up on the tradition stats sheet.
"Normally all you get as far as stats go is the tackle count, the hit ups and maybe something like a drop ball count or who made mistakes. But they can be so misleading; for instance if someone just flops on top of a bloke after the tackle has almost been completed, he often gets credited with a tackle. Or someone might lazily ruck the ball up and be smashed backwards but they come off looking good because their hit-up count is high'.
David's application is almost endless in the way in can record different stats that typically would pass by.
Things like:
· Touches of ball per game
· Yards made after contact in hit ups.
· Player involvement; who is the instigator in tackles and who is assisting
· Passes leading to tries
· The quality of kicks in play; distance and effectiveness
· The quality of winger/fullback returns from kicks
· Amount of decoy runs; extra efforts off the ball
· Possession flows; amount of time spent in your own half
· Effectiveness inside the opposition's red zone
Once the game has been transferred from video into your personal computer there is literally hundreds of different stats which can be used. With all your statistics "tagged" against the video file, it is possible to return to any particular portion of the game allowing you to do multiple passes of the video, perhaps each time adding a more complex level of analysis.
It is also possible to nominate a player and build a file of every time he performed an event in the game, perhaps a tackle or a carry and record these instances one after the other onto a video tape for additional feedback to players.
Easily available video editing programs allow you to split out small
sections of the game and each of these small clips can be labeled and
recorded against a player in a similar way as you may catalog your CD
or LP collection. Alternatively you may wish to catalog events that
relate to a particular opponent or a particular referee.
The data that can be chronicled is limited only by the amount of time you have to set up the application and enter the statistics. While not for sale at the moment, David has not ruled out the possibility of taking his application to the market place, but in the meantime insists it's something every coach can put in place either by himself, or with the help of someone with a general knowledge of computers.
