The what and how of video analysis research in rugby union: a critical review

BackgroundVideo analysis is a common tool used in rugby union research to describe match performance. Studies using video analysis range from broad statistical studies of commercial databases to in-depth case-studies of specific match events. The range of types of studies using video analysis in rugby union, and how different studies apply the methodology, can make it difficult to compare the results of studies and translate the findings to a real-world setting. In attempt to consolidate the information on video analysis in rugby, a critical review of the literature was performed.Main bodyNinety-two studies were identified. The studies were categorised based on the outcome of the study and the type of research question, sub-categorised as ‘what’ and ‘how’ studies. Each study was reviewed using a number of questions related to the application of video analysis in research.There was a large range in the sample sizes of the studies reviewed, with some of the studies being under-powered. Concerns were raised of the generalisability of some of the samples. One hundred percent of ‘how’ studies included at least one contextual variables in their analyses, with 86% of ‘how’ studies including two or more contextual variables. These findings show that the majority of studies describing how events occur in matches attempted to provide context to their findings. The majority of studies (93%) provided practical applications for their findings.ConclusionThe review raised concerns about the usefulness of the some of the findings to coaches and practitioners. To facilitate the transfer and adoption of research findings into practice, the authors recommend that the results of ‘what’ studies inform the research questions of ‘how’ studies, and the findings of ‘how’ studies provide the practical applications for coaches and practitioners.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1186/s40798-018-0142-3) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…3 The most directly attributable PIs should distinguish between winning and losing in team sports such as rugby. In contemporary literature, researchers have looked to analyse multiple PIs and their relationship to match outcome 4 and how PIs effect match performance 5 . Furthermore, recent studies on rugby at the elite level, have suggested there are PIs which are more important than others in having an effect on match outcome.…”

“…Jones et al [16] also assessed the difference between winning and losing statistics in Rugby Union, finding few statistics that were significant. Other studies have attempted to identify the factors that differentiate better teams within sports [17,18,19]. As such, it is important to quantify the difference between successful and unsuccessful teams, as this can help identify the most important KPIs to select when scouting performers.…”

It has often been said that Gaelic football (GF) and Australian Rules Football (ARF) are similar sports, and amateur Gaelic footballers have been recruited to play in the professional Australian Football League. Using Wilcoxons's test, the significant (p < 0.05) factors differentiating winning and losing performance in ARF were indirectly compared to the differentiating factors between winning and losing in GF. Of the 15 key performance indicators (KPIs) that were seen to be significant between ARF teams, six (40 %) were also seen to be significant in discriminating between winning and losing GF teams. A Mann-Whitney U test was then completed to directly compare ARF and GF, twenty-six of the 30 KPIs were seen to be significantly different to each other (p < 0.05). The findings suggest that recruiting a Gaelic footballer based on the belief that their Gaelic background will aid their transition to ARF is not an appropriate decision. Instead, staying with more traditional methods of talent identification -for example anthropometric measurements -is advocated until further research is undertaken in this area.
