im sure some of them can bully birchall around.. and hill... and make them look over their shoulder... and niggle guera into giving away free kicks.
in the middle they have to compete.. in the periphery they just need to be nasty ... usually we try to stand up in the middle ... those inside mids they have love all that stuff.... ust force their outside midfielders into mistakes by being in to THEIR faces...
trust me.. theyre not all hard...
i can live with someone getting three to hammer birchall...i wanna hear some bones cracking.....i want these outside hawks to hurry their kicks and their inside players to have to run around trying to protect them....
i want buddy abused and harassed... so hes not focussed... most of all this week id bring in robbie for a rucking advantage
Go with an extra tall or drop Casboult/Kreuze?
not sure at this stage... all i know is we should exploit their ruckmen.
stand strong in the middle
and beat them up around the outside... every time some of their outside runners touch the ball its a crunch
and everytime their playmakers are on the ground ... grind them into the turf...
we never do this.. but every one does it to us...
you can just bet murph etc will cop it..
i suggest we begin doing it this week... and do what geeelong do to them... hit their outside players so they begind shitting themselves.
their inner players are iron clad... dont worry being overly tough against them... just no backwards steps
we never take the initiative...
