I would think that is what you want to do - coach to your team strengths. Easier to improve strengths as that is where people are happy and confident, rather than working hard on weaknesses, which people don't enjoy at the expense of their strengths.

See this has me confused, Mick wanted a game plan that demanded precision kicking around the boundary initially to protect the corridor but we never had the list to deliver that style..after a couple of kicks we just would turn the ball over. Running the ball down the middle can bite you when you when you turn it over but its the shortest way home when you dont have great footskills and draws forwards to the footy.
