what was real obvious tonight was this.
In the first half we didnt once go backswards sideways etc with short kicks.
we played quick transition in the first half and kicked fairly long.
2nd half we lost our forward structure, we started to drop players behind the ball which resulted in short kicks ,slow transition, sideways
THAT IS THE COACHES FAULT.
Anyone who actually watches the game would of seen that we didnt go one on one in the 2nd half, and the back D6 players started to zone off, which created a huge problem, game over
So the coach is to blame for the 2nd half
Who's to "blame" for the 1st half then? The players? WOuld think the coach may have had just a little input into it
I would argue the first half is the best footy we've played in probably 12 months - it was fantastic watch.
Actually last night (bar the result) was a very good game of footy to watch, first half by us, 2nd half by them.
Fast attacking, when it comes off it really is a treat to watch especially with that atmosphere
they had Cogs at full forward for 10 minutes in the third quarter.
I reckon he was luck that he got hiddne down there
If you want to point fingers at "slow transition" - I reckon sadly Cogs is a major culprit
Agree with others when the Bombers got those run on of goals in the 3rd as per normal of 2009, heads dropped and that was that....
Have to say that if Morton and Polo (and there was one other but I am not sure who it was) had kicked those set shots result could have been very different
