New netflix Sports show. This time round, centering on Rugby!
Seem like a fun watch. I will give my views although I am not as knowledgeable on Rugby compared to other sports.

Look like I will be rooting for both Yonsei and Sangmu. I prefer the competition to be held over a league format rather than a tournament format. But it is probably done in a tournament format due to time constraint. The scrum fight is interesting to watch.

KEPCO really show why they are at the top. They are awesome in both matches. POSCO E&C also show why so many rated them highly.
I really like the Try matches. It is so intense to watch. I like how they change the rules because of it really turning into a brawl instead of rugby.
For the try-matches, I personally feel that teams should pick a combination of players with strength, explosive speed and good agility.
-Strength because they need to be strong enough to hold on to the ball
-Explosive speed to accelerate past their opponents
-Agility is the ability to change direction rapidly, and it is crucial for them to weave in and out of their opponents.
Bonus if they have meta-vision, as it will help them to pick out passing better. I myself spotted a few moves that will have help their own teams more.
P.s: I have meta-vision myself
And of course the traditional Korea University vs Yonsei University. They have rivalry in all their sports.
Korea University look better than Yonsei University so far in the try match, so let see whether can Yonsei bounce back in match 2 to tie it up at 1-1

As expected, Korea University is better than Yonsei University in the try game.
And moving on to Kick Game. The Angular velocity of the ball is crucial in getting the successful kick. And looking at the angle where the kicker have to kick, if they can apply magnus effect to the ball, it will increase their chances of success.
And we are already moving on to tournament round.
All 3 matches will be fun watches.
Some might wonder why Korea University and POSCO coaches do not choose easier opponent in Yonsei University. The reason being is just like me, they believe that you cannot improve playing against weaker teams than you. And for Korea University, it is also a good opportunity for them to gauge the skill gap between them and KEPCO which is basically the National team of Korea.
Since we are already moving on to tournament round, I wonder will we get to see Andre Jin in the show. For context, Andre Jin appeared on Physical 100 Season 2, and is also a former National team member of Korea Rugby team. He is also a cast member of other sport show such as the Korea soccer variety "Gentleman League.

The game between KEPCO and Korea University look closer than it did in the 1st half because of the numerical advantage that Korea University enjoyed when one of the KEPCO's player was suspended for 10 minutes. If you look at it, after the numerical advantage was void, KEPCO is able to stem the minor bleeding they suffered and come back strongly in the second half.
Having said that, Korea University do show some fine plays although their lack of experience really show. On the other hand, seem like KEPCO was also suffering from some nerves in the 1st half, maybe the fear of losing to the heavy underdog.
I do like the breathing exercise they do after every try though. It is actually a centering technique, designed to help the players to focus more and calm down their nerves. I actually learn this technique myself during my Psychology lesson in Sports and exercise science, therefore I recognise this technique. And this really show why KEPCO is among the top. The knowledge to pull off centering technique by the players themselves without any input from their coaches.
