Up and Under

An up and under is a type of kick in various codes of football. It is a high short punt onto or behind the defending team, and is a useful tactic both for attacking and defending. In Australian rules football and rugby league it also known as a bomb, while in rugby union it is also called a Garryowen after the Garryowen Football Club that popularised the use of this tactic.

Famous quotes containing the word and:

    “Mahomet made the people believe that he would call a hill to him, and from the top of it offer up his prayers for the observers of the Law. The people assembled; Mahomet called the hill to come to him again and again; and when the hill stood still, he was never a whit abashed, but said, If the hill will not come to Mahomet, Mahomet will go to the hill.”
    —Francis Bacon (1561–1626)
