Leaving aside what that actually means, I suspect Voss, like most current coaches, is very method and systems focused. I get the feeling that he will go for "run and dare" only as a Plan B or C. I have heard 3 separate "murmurings" in the last week that suggest Voss has no plan B.

I'd like to think the last quarter of the Brisbane game was a Plan B, but I have no way of knowing for sure.

I love the analogy Brenton Sanderson used about the green light in the link I posted. I reckon Carlton have had that attitude since the bye (dont go red). From rnd 1 to the bye, they were free spirited and daring (ie stay green). I reckon what we saw in the last was pre bye Carlton, not necessarily plan B.

AFL goes way past that, I can't believe how Gerard Wobbly carried on like it was some sort of top secret inside deep dive!

With Greene and Preuss non-starters, I don't think GWS will trouble the Bulldogs.

It's an interesting point to ponder. I suspect that in those early rounds, the boys were playing according to plan - win the contest and go forward at speed. Personally, I would not think that fast ball movement automatically means risky football. I think in those early rounds we were playing exactly as Voss wanted, and it was working a treat. When it stopped working, then you need to think of other methods, and that's when you start to go for the risky kick, handball etc. If you play risky, there's a higher chance of turnovers, and I think Voss understands full well that our turnover game and our transition game are not to the level, and are still works in progress. Which is why I think he's not so enthused about playing like the last q of the Lions game. IMO.

The tagging of Saad has really wrecked our system too...have gone from being a top team in forward entries to no 11 and I bet if you dug deeper those entries wouldn't be great quality either.
Lyon said Harry has to get involved more too or words to that effect which in layman's talk means make more effort...

Pressure is on now. Bulldogs can beat Hawthorn in the last round. Richmond shouldn’t have problems with Hawthorn and Essendon.
This digital world is too much for us insects to understand.
