A handler, A, starts with the disc in the middle of the width of the field, marked by D1. A cutter, B, starts 5-10m downfield of A, guarded by D2.

D1 > A > D2 > B

Brummie says:
B can use some tricks to get open, but should aim for a single decisive cut
This is just as much a drill for A; they need to get used to reacting quickly to the options available and completing the pass to B
If you are struggling, try initiating movement by running directly at the disc, *then* turning. This makes it harder for the defender as they are back-pedalling.
