Our game is better suited to the bigger spaces of the 'G. In fact I am certain TW has built a team around speed, skills and space and the Telstra Dome is much harder for this style of play to execute.
The reason we have played better over the last few weeks at the Dome against the Dogs and Saints, is because we have changed our style of play to shepperd, block and tackle to create the required space rather than run ahead to recieve. The run and recieve tactic was too esily shut down and buckled under pressure too much where the shepperd/block tactic creates room behind the opposition to better despose of the ball.
I think it is a bloody joke that we have to play at the TD full stop but to play an opposition as our home game at their home ground is rediculous!
The Melbourne game I can slightly understand but if we have to play another team at their home ground as one of our home games then (to quote our coach) I'll spew up
Bloody unfair draw! If we miss out on the finals by a game and a half I won't be happy!
