Round 17 Carlton vs Hawthorn Game Commentary

[Milhanna13]

It's simple. The hawks are flooding the area in front of us. Doing the "West Coast Web" which is the new "Clarkos Cluster". We either kick to a 50-50 at best, a 3-1 at worst, or try and run through them british bulldogs style and hope for the best.
OR
We keep possession. The only way to do that is to go sideways/backwards which if done right and quick enough, allows you to attack down the other side of the ground.

Yeah, and they are pretty f'n good at it. When they show that down the ground footage from behind the goals, all you see are Hawks jumpers swarming in the 50ms in front of the ball carrier. Nowhere to go - even freo and swans found it hard... We ain't freo or Syd
