What were you cooking?
Quote from: Tuckerbag on April 03, 2012, 09:24:37 PMWhat were you cooking? Just veggie hot dogs but it was bad timing!! Wasn't expecting him on at all and was halfway through frying crap (and copped a decent whack in the eyes from vengeful onions... anyone got any tips for that!!?). But it was a good interview. He was asked about our players bombing the ball, but he said that's a confidence thing. He said it takes time for players to be confident enough to cut a ball inside and they can't always pick someone out down the line. So they pick the most conservative option which is the spray. He also said defenders take longer than anyone else to develop and went through how inexperienced our line is (not as in excuses though! Insider conveniently had a chart ready with our defender's games played). He's expecting Grimes to have a break out year similar to Rance's 2011, and that we'll rotate two talls through Cloke and Dawes depending on whoever is firing at the time since we won't be able to roll with a third tall. Some plays were broken down and I resigned to the fact that I was never going to remember it all. Went for like 10mins!Was asked on the draw. He didn't want to give away too much, but said 2 and 3 would of been excellent. The players might have choked a bit after being so pumped up by the hype and the crowd. At Geelong and up at Manuka there were only small crowds. He also said facing an undermanned Geelong and GWS may not of been the best preparation in comparison to Carlton's pre-season where they worked hard.
