Pre-Game Pressure: AFL 2019 Rd 5: Carlton vs Western BUlldogs

Tagging has been yesterday’s tactic for a couple of years now.  That’s not to say that less enlightened coaches don’t employ it.  De Boer on a badly out of form Dusty is a classic example of sacrificing one player’s contribution to achieve very little.  Unless your tagger can win his own ball, it’s a tactic that will follow the drop kick into obscurity.

Mind you, bringing the drop kick back for set shots at goal might improve accuracy.
