Posty is going upwards. Moore and Mcguane are going downwards. They all had similar amount of the ball but he's only 22 and the other two are 26-28. If he went for marks instead of punching he would have had 10 possessions
I agree with this, I can't for the life of me work out was in the head of the defenders last night - it was almost like they were brainwashed into going for the spoil instead of marking. They were all guilty of it and it cost us time and time again. Then again, our marking was atrocious so maybe is was a confidence thing.
Grimes and Batchelor have done the same last year. But they have started taking marks this year. Post will get better in every area. Gotta get him to 50 games nece and quick now
I can understand , and forgive young defenders, for punching at times when they should mark. I t is basically a judgment thing and erring on the side is of caution is better than trying to mark when you should punch.
...But i am driven to distraction watching a bloke get two fists to the ball. if you can get two hands to the ball, you attempt to mark the effing thing.
