Video: how to drop a goal like Duncan Weir

The Scotland stand-off took time out from national squad training this week to take us through his routine to kick the kind of drop-goal that he delivered to perfection in the Stadio Olimpico to claim victory over Italy.

As part of the Scotsman Rugby Show, in association with Ginger Grouse, Weir provides the tips that he has picked up. In the short masterclass at his old club ground at Cambuslang - where the weather was more ‘Scottish’ than that of Rome, Weir explains the coaching points to delivering an accurate drop-kick time after time. The key, of course, is practise.
