The Run Home
This is a great post, thanks. Totally agree re the result of this change in approach being the boys āhaving funā and lifting their confidence. you can see the Pies and Port players having loads of fun out there. Weāre not down in the doldrums or anything, but certainly not playing with a lightness of being. I am a subscriber to the loading theory, but actually put sports psychology well ahead of it for impact. Anyone who has played sport to a reasonably high level knows how important the mental side is, and it can make a huge difference even if 1 or 2% off. (dismissing most of the mental side by discounting the oft-raised point that āplayers are mentally weak/softā is lazy thinking in my view - and, to add a pun, wrong-headed. Of course it matters. It matters a great deal.)

I hear you, but where Iām at is that if we finish top 4 (as weāll need to to have a genuine chance), then from there, if weāre good enough weāll win. We can win this year, no question, but Iām not seeing the team unity we had in 2021, and that Collingwood and Port have. long way to go thoughā¦

Yes. But I reckon theyāre more deliberately creative - and they pull it off so many times. And a feature in this game has been the breakneck speed running past the ball carrier - incredible. They get 20-25 meters instantly each time. But then a silky delivery into 50. Very impressive. No pressure in this game of course. We showed what can happen if you hassle and block and choke their ball movement. But the Pies style looks very, very good if you give them an inch.
