Your confused. You start talking about a pop pass and finish demonstrating a basic pass, again you've called these "Advanced skills" when in fact they are the most basic skills in the game.

Advanced Rugby Pop Passing

My name is Alex. This is Andy. This is Engine Doug. We all play for the Missoula All-Maggots in Missoula, Montana. There are two types of passes in the field, for the most part. First one is a long spiraling ball; mostly for the backs, scrum up for the fly half, get some distance in the pass and still get good accuracy. Second pass is a simple pop pass. That’s what we’re going to show you right know. Two hands on the ball, fingers down towards the point. There should be no rotation on this ball. It should be really easily run on to, usually caught, just like, that’s all it is. Get a friend, a couple of feet apart, pass back and forth. It’s not so much your elbows and your shoulders. It’s more your wrist and you’re popping your fingers. When you’re better at that, put some distance between you. Try to keep it without rotation just a flick of the wrists. That’s all it is.
