Episode description

Mark is the current Video Analyst for Waikato Rugby. He has also been the analyst for the Fijian Drua, Chiefs, Canada National team and Bay of Plenty Steamers. As well as his analysis role, he is an assistant coach with the Waikato Men's Rugby team. 

Mark has made a niche from combining his coaching experience with the ability to use footage as a learning tool for players. And apart from that he is a top man. He is very grounded, has a great sense of humour and loves to play the drums in his spare time (he can can keep a sharp beat - 'in the pocket.')

We yarned about: 

  • The role of a video analyst
  • A week in the life of an analyst
  • How youth coaches could use video analysis to help players
  • And much more
