My aussie will occasionally have what we call an "aussie moment" when running and playing sometimes he will "sting" himself and act like his leg is about to fall off. After a moment or two of consoling he's running after his bc sister like the wind.
Also you might consider instead of yanking on his neck using a Halti or Gentle leader to help with control in the lunging. These fit like a horse halter and help you control the head. Control of the head leads to control of the body. I use one on all my foster dogs until they learn to walk politely on lead as one of my biggest peeves is being dragged down the sidewalk.
