AFL Rd 1 2020: Post Game Post Mortum: Carlton vs. Richmond

[laj]

Raw numbers or not, i think its part of our game plan.

Teague wants to be able to get the ball inside 50 and keep it there.....he said as much pre-game.
So what do we do? Go long inside 50 towards the boundary so the defenders hit it over the line. Tada the ball is inside 50 and we have a stoppage. We setup our wall outside 50 and we lock it in. We got what we wanted.

If only we had some decent forwards to help mark the ball (Curnow, Harry), or crumb it (Eddie) and we'd be able to turn those entries into scores a bit easier.

I'm encouraged by what i saw last night.

So was I but we have to learn to get it in there faster. We'd score more easily and would add an extra dimension to our game
