What's the difference between corralling and closing?

Another thing we are poor at is shepherding.  Its non existent

Oh look!  Instead of a shepherd that would allow us to dispose of the ball without intense pressure from the opposition, we then allow the opposition to either dispossess us or at least pressure us into a turnover. In our defence that turns into a goal.

Wow! Great thinking Dimma (Einstein)!!!! :clapping :clapping :clapping

Just to be a heretic while Cotch racks up pressure points he misses tackles badly and his tackles are ineffective. He badly needs to bulk up so he can impose himself on plays.

I swear to stuffin god, my hubby was having a good ol' laugh watching Richmond run the ground handballing it to players under more and more pressure. You could just see when the turnover was coming
