Edward,
If you have fast and powerful wingers then you will need to move the ball away from set pieces quickly to maximise their potential.
From the line out, I suggest you practise throwing more to middle or back jumpers as this can tie in their back row and enable your team to move the ball quickly down the line to your wingers.
Perhaps you can use one winger to come into the line either as an option runner or as a strike runner.
Good luck

You could also create space near the throw by setting up a maul or peel towards the middle of the field and playing quickly back toward the sideline to your near winger. This could even come straight off the top into the 5m channel.
