Rd 15: Post Game Passion: Carlton vs Adelaide

[PaulP]

We started the season going for attack. It was a complete disaster. Bolton very quickly realised we weren't up to it so wound it all back after getting hammered in the preseason games and rnd 1.

We were handballing at all costs and playing on from even the most difficult stations.

I really like Richmond's tactic of slicing little 25m passes into the corridor I  the forward line. If all your team mates know you're going to do it you become predictable to your team mates which we don't have moving the ball forward right now.

I can only assume that Bolton either doesn't trust this style of play or can't coach it successfully. A few seasons back we were playing quite fluid,  attacking footy, so it can be done.
