The Defence

[ElwoodBlues1]

In that video clip when Jones jogs across the CHB, our left-hand HFF, Wing & HBF has been sucked across the centre into the contest way before Jones floats across.

If they want Jones and Weitering to keep intercept marking those utilities who operate in the flank to flank zone need to float back to make up defensive numbers, or else at every contest we'll be outnumbered in defence.

If we want to maintain numbers at the contest, then it's up to our forwards to float down and potentially leave their opponents behind, but we better stop bombing the ball into F50 if we do that!

Owies gave us a perfect example of that, and it stood out like dogs balls because we just never see Carlton players doing it!

Does all this sound familiar?

Spot on, this is what happens every week.........ie I saw Stocker last week forced to man Bruce up deep down back...real smart.
