He has no plan B.
Having shots from the boundary line, pockets aren't going to create goals.
Playing forwards high up puts no pressure on the opposition defenders.
Having no small quick forwards to chase and put pressure on doesn't help.
Wanting Jack to work hard up the ground and beat 2,3 players isn't playing to his strengths.
Hardwick is a fool and is stubborn not playing direct football, having shots at goal from directly in front would be too easy wouldn't it?
Ohhh my, Griffiths missed shots from in front, Ohhh my, that never happens does it?
That's OK, let's have low percentage shots from the boundary line instead.
Gggggg didn't Melbourne hit the post at least 4-5 times from directly in front?
Players start to lose confidence when they work their backsides off delivering the football into the pockets only to have it add a behind or rebounded back out!
Our forward line is never open.
That last quarter sums up Hardwick, played Jack high forward and when we got the ball we had no one deep in the forward line to put some pressure on their defenders.
We either miss-kicked it or kicked it to Jack at CHF with a 2,3 v 1.
Nahhhh, Hardwick wouldn't want to play Jack deep forward with a small or one of Lloyd or Gordon, that would be too logical.
"You know what playing in the wet shows you Hardwick? It shows you the problems in your game plan"
Insipid Game Plan you muppet! Wake up you fool or go back to your computer and fill out tax returns fool!
