Secondly, this is one shot, we are the underdogs, and a rookie mistake might end the season. If we still had the double chance it would be different, but now we need as many experienced cool heads as we can muster and trust the plan whatever it may be!
No matter what it's going to be tough, we are without 2 of our 3 main avenues to goal for the biggest game of the season, time for the MC to get inventive.
I largely agree, but not with “avenues” … and I think that it’s more than semantics.
It’s actually two of our three main goal scorers that we are missing. That means that we have to (a) rely on other players to kick a winning score and (b) use innovative avenues to goal that will give them the best chance of doing that.
Vossy and the MC will have to be incredibly inventive with the way we structure the forward line and how we tweak our transition and team defence.
We should have pulled it off against St Kilda but we’ve got a much tougher opponent tomorrow. The upside is that Vossy has better weapons to deploy this week … if the MC gets it right.
