Enough to make your blood boil. I trust Teague, Cain and Co. are drawing the AFL's attention to this stat... forcefully. It's not as if we don't get it in there often ...which makes the stat even more damning.

One of them brought up the fact there is so few training sessions we don't get to work on slowing momentum shifts. We often can't train the whole side as a group. Big focus next year.

Good piece, for mine it's the leadership thing... someone stands up, holds up play and takes charge - between the lugholes stuff. Should be a mantra - opposition score two in succession, we slow play until we answer with a major.

I think we have both a mental and physical issue at the moment. We appear to run out of legs a bit after our initial onslaught in games and this causes a loss of concentration and focus due to that fatigue. I suspect it is a result of not knowing how to control the pace of a game - when to let rip and and when to shut up shop for a while. May reflect a lack of on field nous/leadership which we have discussed before. If we could control the pace of games better I think we would generally perform better. Teams see us tiring and then hit us atm.

Hard bit too is not being able to train for it. Not many sessions with so many games and even then you can't train with your full squad often. There's things you can do like putting an extra behind the ball, a forward becoming and extra mid, slowing the game down, which we should do, but there's nothing like being able to properly develop that structure like 2nd nature at training. It's the one thing this year stopping is being properly entrenched in the 8.

The two years he had at Brisbane are paying off now I reckon and they now how to both rally when headed and close off games better than we do.

In effect he was adamant it was a mindset issue.

We do have an issue with leg-speed, we aren't demonstrating that we are fast enough to chase down, and we aren't big or strong enough to lock in. Maybe the MC has a part to play in this regard to get the balance right.

Teague may have said that LP, but from my seat, admittedly on the couch, they looked like they tired to me and then lost focus.

He would go to the centre bounce after the opo got a bit of a run and say "we get the next goal" and the teamates knew it was non negotiable. That comes with experience and a strong culture.
