Overhandballing

[spirit of norm smith 16,307]

It’s the shocking virus that exists throughout our playing group.  When we lose, it’s often poor decision making especially poor use of the footy. Especially overhandballing!! 
 

Often it’s too a teammate under pressure as well. And creates turnovers. 
 

And tonight with wet weather. The chronic disease of overhandballing means you fumble and slip and create no space or territory.

along with Max not tapping to our advantage lost count of the taps that went straight to Fro players

We never adapt to wet conditions. Fritsch handpass to Rivers an example.

the hail Mary or Hollywood handpass over the back of players heads in the hope that it finds a melbourne player is killing us. I love Oliver but he needs to cut that crap out of his game.

Posters often say we bomb it long too often.

I reckon we handball too often. 
Surely  in those conditions you should gain as much yardage as possible with long kicks, which will probably go over the back.

I think it’s rarely the correct decision to kick short to a 50:50, but in wet windy conditions it’s a sin.

It's basic Auskick stuff to know to kick long in wet weather footy. Also manning up you learn in Auskick which we failed to do tonight. We have been overhandballing since the Cameron Bruce days. It's a pity we have a weak excuse for a coach who obviously struggles to communicate these things with the players.
