when a player in Rugby union is tackled with the ball they try to recycle it i.e. give it to their team mates, either via a ruck (if the ball is on the ground) or via a maul (if the ball is held in the air) if the player does this successfully it is known as a phase. The 5th phase is the 5th time the ball has been recycled without the opposition getting their hands on the ball or play being stopped by the referee.
