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?

I remembers Silvers Circus or was it Ashtons that use to have the circus down by the boulevard?
