• How to know your players
• Helping players understand the "why" and how important that is
• How to develop skills, from detail through to the scenarios
• What Sonny Bill Williams said to Dave which changed the way he coached
• How to keep square with your body angle
• Coaching strike plays
• Finding the right balance to develop skill detail
