I suspect not and I think he'll have to develop more consistency in the VFL before he gets considered for another go with the seniors. BB was talking in his post mtch about the need to develop alternative avenues to goal via mids and smaller forwards, plus the need to develop a pressure small forward. That may be the way we go in R1, rather than persisting with an option that has consistently failed at senior level?
He has only come to that conclusion? :o
We need to have a spread of leading forwards, no more of this bombing and hoping.
We have always burst out of the backline and pin pointed passes up the wing only to automatically play on and bomb the ball to a 2 or 3 on 1. Hasn't worked and will never work!
We need to get the ball to half forward then assess the options, we seem to play on regardless and the forwards are never in the right position because they are buggered from running from the backline. :
leave 2 or 3 targets up forward with the instruction to lead in patterns and the ball carrier to honour the leads.
Works for other teams so why not us? :o
2024... Moir of the same to come
