Last Practice Match v Sydney

[LP]

I've watched our game against the Fluffy Ducks twice - sucker for punishment. It was as if the players had a Valium sanger before the game I find myself still perplexed by the performance so drawing any firm conclusions would be perilous, to say the least.

Interesting, there is a comonality between the Filth and the Fluffy Duck games.

In my opinion it's a tell about what other clubs think is our weakness, leg speed, and what our strength is, F50!

The Fluffy Ducks stacked their midfield with fast runners, left their bigger bodies like Parker and Heeney forward.

It sort of makes sense, no opposition will wants us to get a clear fast break from the centre if we have BigH and Charlie forward of center. Our F50 setup is the strongest in the competition, so the task from opposition coaches will be to slow down our entries so they can structure up.

Both the Filth and the Fluffy Ducks used fast moving sweepers on a rotation to charge at the fall of the ball so that even if they didn't get it our progress out of the center was slowed.

I didn't see any attempt from Voss to stop this happening, let's hope he has kept his cards close to his chest for the real deal!
