Title: Who needs to lift this week?
Post by: one-eyed on April 10, 2007, 04:32:52 AM
Plough mentioned a few of our senior players needed to lift. The captain is obviously one of them but who else is also under the pump?

I thought Tambo played well in patches last week, i have a feeling he is going to set it alight this week!!!

There is still a lot of room for improvement across the board.

Agree with those names X and comments. Richo has always taken marks on his chest so that bad habit isn't going to change. He would have give Bolton a bath if he could take marks with outstretched arms.

Paddy missed the last bit of preseason and it's showing. He just hasn't got back into the pace of AFL footy such as getting nabbed for holding the ball after he took too long to take his kick and was called to play on by the ump. Just a lack of awareness to miss Spider lurking right behind him.

I've learned from personal experience  to  always watch out for spider's lurking behind you...or above you...or in front of you

As only one player had 10 kicks or more on the weekend, I would say there would be 21 players who need to lift.
Also if they same players who only managed 4 kicks last week repeat again this week,
City Oval at Coburg should be the next ground they will play on.

 ;D the Burgers play at home this week and then are away for the next fortnight before returning to City Oval on Mother's Day (they have bye in there too ;)). You're not suggesting perservering unitl them are you Jack  :rollin

I actually think it's the likes of Paddy, Raines (is it just me or does he seem to have dropped a yard in pace?), Sugar (better this week but still out of form) and Tuck (to name just 4) that really need to lift

I would think there would have to be sum sort of change this week  :-\ wouldn't there

there will only be a change if brown or simmo are ready, if not, the team will remain unchanged

To the side.
I will tell you all how things will pan out.
The emphasis this week will be on defensive pressure from all forwards, Richo and Schultz included. ( Those who go to training should watch for drills that show this.)
The idea will be too push the pies wide when defending therefore the need for there players to push high up the ground to gain possesion.
Ploughs plan would be too get the pies out of there comfort zone and get Rocca etc up the ground..
If the ball comes through the corridor and the Clements are allowed to rebound at will, Tiges will get beat by 6 goals.Rocca will kick a bag.
If he is forced outside 50 with there other dangerous forwards, eg Davis, Tiges good chance of winning

Agree Jack. I saw a bit of Magpie training at Gosch's paddock when heading to the Tiges' training a few weeks back. The Pies like to kick from defence to a free man running to the wing (a free out for the defender) and then switch back into the corridor. Gives them the option to kick long to Rocca or Cloke or for their midfielders to run and link and kick running goals. Malthouse keeps things simple at Pieland as far as tactics go and works more on making sure they have the better and more honest workrate to outbustle and outlast their opposition IMO. Makes them predictable but also allows them to kick bags if they are allowed to run riot and get on top. In the past when we have won we have pressured them into mistakes because we've blocked the corridor option they train at.

Raines (is it just me or does he seem to have dropped a yard in pace?)

Rainesy started training later than the rest but agree WP. Perhaps a touch of second year blues and opposition sides paying him more respect.
