I was more worried about how we structure without the ball. Plenty of guys worked hard to get to a good defensive position.
We are also good at having a "release" player now. Either by hand or foot. Several times we were under extreme pressure and a little kick towards the boundary released the pressure even if it got the ball outside 50.
I think we do move it wide but that is to switch the ball and bring it back through the middle. Despite how bad Freo are, they are still great at blocking the corridor, and denying space.
I just think the players know where to go and are comfortable with what they are doing. Just such a difference watching them last year run around lost.
