Game Plan Tip #1
Shaun Hampson averages 1.2 marks per game. Seeing as he will be marked by the opposition ruckman I advise against having our backman kick it to a Hampson vs opposing ruckman mark contest every 2nd kick in like they currently do. If we have 12 kick ins a game, 6 of these will go to Hampson. Where he has a 1/6 chance of marking it (if we eliminate any other marks in the game which boosts his probability stats).
If you do the Math, Hampson is extremely unlikely to retain possession and thus either causing a turn over or throw in where we will most likely lose possession anyway.
Stay tuned for Game Plan Tip #2

I generally try to avoid making Simpsons references like every other joker does on internet forums ....but stuff me all I can think of is Lenny's voice saying "Game Plan" instead of "Dental Plan" over and over again in Homer Hardwick's empty head as he stares blankly out the window of his office at Punt Road....

Game Plan Tip #2
Look through the entire club and find a tagger. Its not a difficult job to do. What is Brad Helbig doing? Does Batchelor have the tank to do it? Where is Matt Dea? Can McDonough do it? What about O'Hanlon or even Gordon who seems a goer? They don't have to get a kick, just blanket a Joel Selwood, Scott Pendlebury or a Jobe Watson who pencil in 3 votes against us every year. If their is no player on the list that can tag, look to the drink runners who on average spend just as much time next to the opposition as any of our blokes. If we don't have a player capable of simply running next to an opposition player with complete and utter purpose of stopping them having a possession then pack up the joint and rent it out to the Silvers Circus.
P.S Clarkson and Hawthorn have a tagger now Dimma, so we can copy them again cause the 16 other clubs weren't convincing.
Tip #2 Find a effing Tagger to curb an opposition best player. If they are going to tag our Deledio or Cotchin and take them out of the game every week with basic U/12's tactics, any danger of us taking their best player out of the game too and even it up?

Good thread Pope, can you come up with a game plan tip for our forward line to kick more goals

Dear Damien.
Game Plan Tip #3.
Man up the loose man in defence:
If this is all difficult to understand, AFL.com have media of the last 7-8 years of average footballers like Nick Maxwell floating around in defense and marshalling rebounding counter attacks which has evolved to 'sling shot' football. I suggest a quick browse through the copious of footage to see how damaging this can be. The last 5 rounds watching Richmond opponents would be a good start. You have even tried this tactic with Chris Newman and Houli last year to good effect, unfortunately and oddly, this year not so much.. but that's for another tip.
This can be simply rectified by manning up the loose man in defense whether it may be Josh Gibson, Nick Maxwell or even the Richmond streaker who was able to find some good space in the southern stand pocket. (Wouldn't hurt giving him a call, might be able to assist in our forwards development more so than the current lad.)
Again simply Maths. If we bomb the ball high up into the air to our saviour in Jack Riewoldt its unlikely he will out mark the 2 blokes who are on him plus the 3rd defender who floats around the defensive 50 unmanned. As good as the cousin of the cry baby is, he can't out mark 3 blokes every forward 50 entry. I'm guessing your plan was for Vickery to out mark 3 defenders this year? Kudos to the staff for dropping him until he is able to beat 1 defender first. Kudos.
We are getting killed on the rebound. Regardless of how good our delivery of F50 entries are, simple mathematics if you have 3 vs 1, the chances are the 3 will win more than most regardless of where you kick the ball. Only so many entries will consist of a lace out pass to a lead that beats a man 1 on 1 and 2 defending space. Simple success probability. Get 3 vs 3 and just maybe we might string some more marks in our F50 arc.

Game Plan Tip #5
Don't trade in recycled Carlton gays.
Shannon Hampson and Sian Grigg are lesbians from Lygon Street. Throw in Ricki Petterd, Arya Edwards, Mia Thomas and Olive Stephensen the fairy quartet last seen at the Mardi Gras on a yellow and black float throwing $100 notes into the air they stole from the FTF*..
Bachar Houli hasn't come out yet. However we have our suspicions.
*peeed away by the board.

If only Bachar Houlle put the effort he puts in grooming his beard into a game
