Spot on. There seemed to be fewer cameras and so more down the ground shots and wide camera angles and you could see the zone structure much better. That system why i say leg speed is over rated. Sure it helps to have some leg speed but if there is no space to run into it doesn't matter how fast you are. Take Butler - a big part of their model is getting him in space. I reckon their first goal was the only time he was allowed any space to run into all game. Same goes got Hill. No space to run forward into. As i said before the game, with the outs you a can take as read who didn't work hard enough last week. An advantage for us tonight is though traeger park is pretty big is longs and relatively narrow. I have no doubt narrow grounds help our zone. Out turnover s were poor, as were theirs. They all looked pretty stuffed though as it was over 20 degrees i think. Ironically though it was our accuracy from set shots that was the real difference.

That was unbelievable call. Smart play by brown (i assume he had nothing forward). Pay he mark as he should and langdon golds that for 10 seconds and then down the line and its game over. Gave them a chance. It was actually a really smart kick by Langdon to get it so deep under pressure. It was great he was switched on as he could of easily just assumed the mark was going to be paid and got tackled.

Exactamundo. Speed is over rated.

Because like us the cats didn't work hsrd enough

Lever isnt that bad. Didnt realise he was related to fritter.
-
Hallf right. The other half was lack of work rate to spread and cover. We can take it as read that fritter, tmac, lockhardt and harmes didnt work hard enough. Simples. Speed is only useful offensively when the player who receives the ball is not held up and has space to run into. The doggies were gifted both.

You'd ask him why he turned up late? What a harsh authoritarian you must be!
-
90% worked. I reckon if they both played together that brilliant word Smith derwayne could say when salem crossed to hunt: Salem switch, hunt

Old binman saying: When you need a win, bring omac in

Ah yes. Obviously can't count to five! Nearly 25% turnover. Cant see them picking preuss but who knows this year. Tmac out is a weird one in some ways. Did they really expect him to play much better last game? Its not as if he was magicallly going to rediscover his mobility or agility. You have to think work rate for harmes was an issue, not just form. And perhaps also for fritter: goody in the post game review: 'mate your defensive effort was [censored] poor, you'd better pull your finger out you're not on bloody holiday' Nekminnit bailey rocks up late to training in a Hawaiian shirt.

Goody has certainly made some perplexing selection decisions this year. Given their form I have no issue them dropping Tmac and Harmes per se, and i'd need to know the circumstances before judging the decision dropping our leading goal scorer. But given Swallow is out injured and Preuss likely makes way for Gawn dropping two players makes (at leas) four changes for this game. Four is a lot given we are a system based team where everyone has to know their role for it to work and synergy is important.

Dr onion, anther psychological questions. I juts listed to Richo interviewed by Ben Gibson on the taking points spot on the dees website. Asked how is that is that so many players could be flat for such an important game he answered that that our system requires effort, energy and pressure and agreed we 'were off a bit'. He then said, that they 'didn't spend too much time on the why Gibbo' and then paraphrasing said instead they 'just addressed what happened, that it is not us' and that we are going to so something about it, and the Saints are the next opportunity. Focus on acknowledging that our effort was not us, showed edits of us working hard and then replicated that effort on the track on edits and 'hopefuly, well not hopefully' we will bring the required effort against the Saints. A couple of questions. The first is that for me logic suggest that understanding the why is pretty important in terms of minimising the risk in the future of happening again. Understanding why is a key part of the Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) model many organisations use. Does that principle apply in this context? And secondly, is the model they did employ to address the problem a sound one?

Lose this game Pollyanna and its time for you to change your posting name again i reckon.... Can i suggest Sisyphus.

We have had so many line in the sand games in the last few years that they start to blur into one another. But that does not change the fact this yet another one. And perhaps unlike other since Goody came on board more is on the line for the team and in particular him than any other game. The Chariman has made it publicly clear making finals is the minimum expectation from the board. Our good run with injury takes any excuse of the table. The COVID situation is one all clubs have to deal with so that's off the table too. Lose this game and finals are close to impossible. Lose and goody's future comes into sharp focus. Lose and there will be a tsunami of fugazi, to stretch the Japanese imagery as the media will be all over goody's future.

No chance they cut nev. For the reasons you note would be crazy. Another is the obvious thing, if he is keen, is for him to transition to a well being role once he retires. Hard to do if you sack him. Only chance of him not playing on is if he calls it a day. And whilst he has seemed off the pace this season i think the whole covid and hub situation has to be factored in. Who knows how it is impacting individual people. Nev has a young family and is leader in his community, a community that is a massive risk of being disproportionately impacted by the covid crisis from both a health and economic perspective. So he as a lot on his plate. Perhaps next season he can get back to his best.
